Neither. I'm perfect so I don't make mistakes I usually just cross it out.


If I had to choose though, I guess the tape. I never thought that the liquid took long to dry, it just leaves a bumpy mess when I do it. At least tape is smooth.

Anything important enough to require correction tape/fluid though would probably be something that I would use MS word for, either because that's the only format that will be accepted (which is common these days) or that it just looks better.
 
i prefer the fluid. it comes out and wipes easily, doesnt take much effort -- but when i try using the tape, it just never works or comes out as smoothly for me
 
I like the liquid cause I like using it for other things too. I prefer the ones in pen form though to the nail polish type brushy thing, that's super messy... I DO however really like the kind of correction tape that has instead of the white strip it's like a bunch of numbers to cover the real numbers under it. I remember we used to use those on accounting papers at one of my old jobs and it looked cool.
 
eraser? I prefer mechanical pencils so that I don't have to worry about messing up in the first place. If I do end up making a mistake with a pen I just cross it out.
 
Fluid! The tape looked cool but it hardly ever worked. It would break and run out fast. Fluid always worked, you just had to make sure it was totally dry or you'd have a bad time. Plus the bottle lasted forever.
 
Correction fluid reeks and I don't wanna inhale it, so I'd rather use correction tape because that's safer. I rarely use a pen, though, so there aren't a lot of instances where I've had to use correction tape when I can just write with a pencil and erase whatever mistakes I make with it.
 
Tape. I've never finish the liquid bottle before it's dried out.
I usually just use a pencil if I'm not typing on a computer anyway though. Typing is faster, takes less space and is easier on the hands. My hands are weak due to neurological stuff.
 
Man, I barely ever use it and haven’t in ages but I’d say maybe tape because it’s less messy.
Also, apparently these correction tape dispensers exist and I need them now!

I've never used correction tape before and only used White Out back when I was a kid and never liked it. If I was going to use either one nowadays then I'd probably opt for the correction tape since it would be a flat surface.
 
Definitely neither! I still have to write a lot by hand for work, but it's not acceptable to use correction tape/fluid, so it's just a line through it.
I also prefer it that way; I think a line through a mistake/correction is just a lot neater (though if you forced me to use one or the other, I would pick the tape).
