Memorizing the Keyboard
$begingroup$
I tried to type blindfolded,actually just closed my eyes and pressed the keyboard
letters one by one with my index finger to write a song line that's on my mind.
When I looked at the screen, I just misspelled all the words.All targets were
miss hit one key away. Only the spacebar was pressed correctly every time.
Can you guess what I tried to write? The screen output:
JB FUR H4VLHJJMT K JUX8BSFDW5KIX VYY MID UPC3 RIG UH. YB4 QLGC JX VP;S

Are you absolutely sure about the D of MID? (I'm not particularly sure it's wrong, just a little surprised.)

Is every non-space character guaranteed to be wrong, or might it be just some of them?

D is a key off the target

The way my keyboard is laid out, I really don't think it quite is. I suppose it's a matter of definition, though.

QWERTY, I assume. This might be very different with, say a Dvorak layout.
