Title: What do you do with a keyboard when you are bored?
Post by: jspark on Wed, 21 November 2012, 11:32:20: I'm just sooooo bored, but still want to do something with my keyboard.
I played at 10FF about 10 mins, typing on my IBM model m, and it turned out that my finger got tired :-X
So, now I'm seeking other thing to do, heh.

Now what can I do with it, and what do you guys do?

Post by: pitashen on Wed, 21 November 2012, 17:38:48: huh? When I am bored, I don't ask myself what to do "with my keyboard." It's more like, what to do "with my computer." i.e. browse the web, play games, chats, etc.

Post by: Binge on Wed, 21 November 2012, 17:54:12: My favorite use of a keyboard when I'm bored is a good game of The Binding of Issac. Otherwise I'm cleaning it.
