i keep hearing people call / a fuckin backslash. THIS IS JUST A REGULAR SLASH. \ is a backslash, cause its going backwards from the normal way you make a slash.
/ = SLASH
\= BACKSLASH

I think i started a thread about this, or ranted about it at some point on this board a couple years ago. It causes me an equal amount of frustration.

bullshit. If you were tellin anyone to write something and you just said slash, they would do it right. But if you said backslash, they would just make a slash. People think every type of slash is the same thing. Its like they dont even see the other key

I have to tell people all the time to use the backslash when entering their user names. TRUST ME, I make sure to point out that they are not supposed to use the regular ol' slash... simply cause i know that they will regardless.

I honestly always have had with trouble with that, and am not sure why this / is considered "foreword" while this \ is "backward"
Why is one "normal"?

Look at the way they lean
/ leans FORWARD
\ leans BACKWARD
Doesn't really matter to me, because I call forward slashes by their birth name: Character 47. If you get that you're a giant fucking nerd.

If anyone is interested, I found THIS (http://www.restrainedelegance.com/preview/lexicon1/icons/index.php) while searching "leaning forward" and it has some very nice sexy girl images and extreme closeups and not at all SFW, but enjoy anyway.
What if you are left handed?
Or dyslexic ?
