Saying bracket saves time. Not much time, granted. But I like my time saved .
What?

It saves .3 seconds in speech, and in typing probably about .5 seconds. Considering that you're unlikely to say bracket or parenthesis more than once in a post, that's a saving of .5 seconds every time you make a post that has the word 'bracket' instead of 'parenthesis'.

Which will give you enough time to... uhm... move a few extra centimetres in your lifetime... Or maybe type an extra word over the same period of time...

Yep, seems worth it to me, I totally take it all back. I mean, who wouldn't
sacrifice appearing reasonably educated/intelligent for a time advantage like that?
