"Keeb" variants
« on: Thu, 01 February 2018, 21:47:25 »
I realize some of you aren't fond of the term keeb. The rest of us like it, though, so ha.

I wondered if we could agree on some standardized forms of the variants of keeb. Here are some suggestions, with examples. Your feedback is welcome, as well as ideas for any further variants.



keebage (n.) "an interesting example of vintage keebage"

keebly (adj.) "keebly goodness"

keeb, keebing (v., gerund) "Let's meet and keeb." "Are we still keebing Thursday?" "Keebing is better than stealing hubcaps."

keebhead (n.) "That keebhead Chyros really goes for Wangs, especially when they're clean and well-lubed."

Yeah, but at least you still have your Pixel 2 XL and Tapatalk that you get to keep reminding us about. I mean, it'd look goofy if I added "Sent from my Toshiba laptop using Google Chrome" to all my posts, but you can get away with it thanks to the glamour of cutting-edge mobile devices.


How bout,  --Keebaboo--,   - A child's first mechanical keyboard...

Keebdonic... A zen like state allowing a person to barrier break, opening up typing speed possibilities to over 9000wpm

Keebation... Active repetitive fondling of new keyswtiches for non computing purposes

Keerahtee... The act of throwing a bag of assorted keycaps @ an armed assailant //mugger

Keebtacular... The act of having thoroughly Completed building or modification of 4x separate custom keyboards in 1 day.

There are all swell suggestions (though I'd be sure to include the B in keebrahtee).

Let's face it: keeb, and its many possible variations, are here to stay!
