does moving your cursor fast really speed up things?
Yeah, is it just me or for some reason whenever something is loading slow, I move my mouse around really fast and all the sudden it loads just like that.. does it help or not? maybe im just imagining things.

I figured it couldn't possibly help but it always seems to help for me, maybe just a coincidence.

haha just coincidence/making yourself believe it works. it's kinda like believing that flashing your brights at a red light makes it turn green.

if anything its going to make it slower due to the computer having to use a small bit of memory to track where the mouse is going.
