Title: What's the most disgusting thing you spilled on your keyboard?

All I ever spilled was some hot sauce on a g80-11900

The only thing I've spilled on a keyboard was a few drops of coffee on my first Ducky Shine (MX blue).  I had two sticky switches for a couple of weeks, but all good now.

Not jizz.  Definitely not that.

Honestly, the worst thing I've ever spilled on a keyboard was not my seed but some beer or some curry sauce from a Thai curry.  Maybe some snot from a violent sneeze.  I may eat near my keyboard, but I try to keep things out of the spill zone and only in the barely splash zone.

Beer. Not that gross at first but when it dried out (even after cleaning the board) It had that sour hops smell that lasted for a long time.

Official legit "lol."

My next choice of response might have been the obvious "why not both?"

But i think we actually do have both, in this case: semen and blood are simultaneously grosser than each other! It's some kind of paradox...

You know unless ... well I'll let you imagine the scenario.
It involves two computer science nerds who love each other very much and are working late. It's very likely one is overweight, wears glasses, and has freckles.

I spilled ketchup all over my G80-2000 earlier today. I think I broke it actually. Very sad.

I just went to put it on my chips (fries), but I missed and spilled it all over the G80. I just couldn't stop squeezing either. It was completely drenched by the end.

I accidently drank from a spittoon when I was trying to grab my cup of soda at my comp.  Nothing funner than gulping down week old chew spit ._. 

As for spilling, luckily nothing spilt on any of my keyboards but I had a pet rat that peed on one when I let him run around the room

Extremely Gross - read w/ caution! I once left my spitter in the middle section of the truck in a water bottle.... my wife not knowing thought it was water and before I could say anything started to drink! OMG needless to say she practically puked and surprisingly did not divorce me... she now knows better and I'm more careful.

You have an SSK. That's not the same as a $5 rubber dome. It even looks almost industrial because of the lighting. Now if I or anyone bought a NIB industrial SSK, I would be incredibly careful with it.

Fountain pen ink. J. Herbin Vert Empire to be exact.

I was refilling a pen and accidentally dropped a pen nib down on my SSK. Drew some green lines on it. I managed to clean it all up (hooray for water based inks!) but for a moment I just facepalmed.

Am I the only one who has never spilled liquids on a keyboard? I have been using computers since Christmas '88 when I got my first as a kid, longer than some of you have been alive.
I drink coffee and other beverages next to my computer all the time, but I usually place the coffee cup on the other side of the mouse pad.

Murphy's law. Of course, it's not saying that it will happen to everyone, but once liquids are introduced to an area with a keyboard, someone somewhere will spill it.

I worked at a repair shop, and the worst thing I ever saw spilled on a keyboard was urine.

Urine is actually very sterile, but its acidity and yellow, that it ate through the keyboard membrane and started to seep on to the PCB.

Nothing grosses me out though. I've seen semen, blood, urine, beer, puss, spit, bile, vomit on keyboards before. I just usually grade it by how bad it ruins the keyboard.

The worst thing I ever got in the shop, though was cockroach filled XBOXs and PS3s. Those were the ****ing worst. ****ing trash from Baltimore City coming to the county wanting their garbage fixed, and they bring that trash with them.

I usually take them out back and fire bomb the unit, then if they want it back, they have to pay the extermination fee, which is $200 + the cost of the materials I had to use for the fire bomb + the cost of proper disposal of a Biohazard + HAZMAT removal of the firebomb. Which totals around somewhere near $540. They usually say no and just never come back.

Lol, this thread is making me second guess buying a used board from the class fields. Now I know why EK has their "unsanitary" policy on returns, lol.

Most disgusting thing I've dropped on my board would probably be tomatoe sauce. I was eating a bowl of pasta and one missed my mouth and fell on the board. I'm pretty OCD about my boards, so I had to remove all the caps and do a full cleaning with a toothbrush and q-tips.
