I just can't bring myself to buy a Ducky keyboard.
Because
Ducky.
"Oh cool. What keyboard is that?"
"Um... it's a Ducky."
I fully realize how silly it is to avoid an entire brand because of its name, but that still doesn't stop me from having some pretty strong negative feelings about it. It's an Asian thing, I get it. The products are great, I get it. And I'm not the type of person who needs every piece of hardware to be a hard-edged, heavy, flaming, hardcore chunk of manliness and testosterone or I might somehow lose face with my nerd friends. I just can't get past the
Ducky. And that cutesy logo emblazoned on every board... YOU'RE NOT MAKING THIS EASY FOR ME, DUCKY.
I can't be the only one.
