Word of the day: Fat Finger
I came across it during a presentation of one of the portfolio companies at Check Point: a Fat Finger. No, it's not an extremely thick finger (although it could be, technically). A fat finger is:
1. A specific kind of typo where one stroke presses two keys instead of the intended one.
excample,
the z was pressed along with the c
2. verb, the act of performing a typo. Often used when referring to password typos. See Fat Finger Disease
"I thought the server was down, but I just fat fingered my password."
"You didn't get my email? I must have fat fingered the address."
