On a side note, this is the second time I’ve seen skittish spelt that way on HN comments in a week or so, having never seen it before. Is this some regional variation or just spreading organically from a mistake?

- jazzyjackson 3y agolol I mean I've never seen it written down I guess so that's how I spelled it off the top of my head. midwest fwiw. Skittish makes me thinks of skittles
