[romevi]

You're on my list now buddy.

[Vittra]

jk don't flip - backwards spacebar is an international crime.

You're on my list now buddy.

Yay! Thanks!

[BlueNalgene]

Confirmed, the space bar came flipped.  I thought it was supposed to be that way - it seems like the type of thing demik would do.  )

It is the type of thing that demik will hate you for doing.  )

Wait, I wasn't supposed to do it?  I do that to all my boards; guess I forgot to flip it back.

No, you are supposed to.  demik thinks otherwise, but he is incorrect.

Flipped trope bars feel like they are slicing my thumb open.

I am with you demik

Damn Topre hipsters and their flipped space bars.

[HoffmanMyster]

Damn Topre hipsters and their flipped space bars.

Does 'hipster' just mean "someone I disagree with" now?

Thank you. These darn kids and their darn spacebars. Back in MY day you didn't touch anything and enjoyed typing up hill both ways!

[Bromono]

idk o.o

I took it as "someone who goes against the trend"

The irony is that hipster is the trend?

[keshley]

The definition of hip (other than the joint, ha ha) is to be fashionable or popular. If Hipsters think they're bucking the trend, then they don't even know the definition of the word that they use to define themselves.

Definitions are so mainstream.

As are regular spacebars. I say you glue it in the upside-down configuration.

[demik]

FLF you've joined my list along side Romevi. ಠ_ಠ

[FLFisherman]

I am going to mail you a box of Cherry switches.

[demik]

So I can start a fire?

[FLFisherman]

So I can start a fire?

Better yet, I'll send the switches to the last person on the tour so they can use them as packing material for your HHKB.

[romevi]

FLF you've joined my list along side Romevi. ಠ_ಠ

It's romevi not Romevi.

The current/popular definition of hipster was not determined or assigned by those being defined as 'hipster'.  And hipster doesn't mean those that attempt to be fashionable.  But that's a different discussion for a different place. 

[BlueNalgene]

I mailed the box, and it is on it's way to the next adventure, courtesy of the USPS.

[Connly33]

Glad i got on when i did since it's heading to the next person before me, my father recently passed away so i've been to busy to get on untill now, working on clearing things out and moving since i was his primary caregiver. so i wanted to say skip sending it to me or maybe put me at the end of the list since it will be a week or three untill i'm finished moving. I wouldn't want to have to worry about keeping the board safe while moving or having it get lost in the mail. I wouldn't have a chance to try it before sending it to the next anyway.

sorry about your loss bro, just let me know when you'll be okay with receiving it and it'll be sent your way.

[Corsa1r]

Am I okay?  I have crippling anxiety when I think about these 'tourists' defiling your keyboard by flipping that bar for spacing.

[Vittra]

We are preparing the pyre for their heretical ways.

[romevi]

When I was a child and unflipped, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I flipped and became a man, I put aside childish things.

[rowdy]

That was a great review from BlueNalgene and gf

If people are finding it a bit light and maybe sliding around the desk, try a sheet (or two) or drawer liner underneath it.  Stops it sliding around and actually improves the thock sound

Also space bars should not be flipped.

[demik]

Since this was pretty successful so far, I MIGHT do a limited tour of my type S. But not until this is over because I don't have another keyboard.

FIRST!!

I just want to glitter it up before anyone else does.

ಠ_ಠ

[romevi]

Nice! I won't be part of the next one since I plan on buying a Type-S anyway.

[demik]

CALVIN KITTY CAT HAVE YOU GOTTEN IT YET.

[whmeltonjr]

I definitely need to be first on the Type-S tour. I won't flip your spacebar or anything... well nothing you'll know about anyway.

[demik]

ಠ_ಠ

You're first.

[FLFisherman]

ಠ_ಠ

You're first.

You better have been speaking to me. ಠ_ಠ

[demik]

You first too.

ಠ_ಠ

[Mattr567]

Getting closer to my turn

[calvinhousecat]

Got the board like 10 minutes ago and wow I think it feels way better than my Novatouch.

Its much stiffer and the thock is more organic.

The hardest part so far is this damn back space placement but so far so good.   

[demik]

once you pick it up, it's smooth sailing

Is your offer for 50 dollars if I convert still standing? Did the 3 people already buy a HHKB?

[demik]

only 1 has. and you have to buy and show proof before i send money.

[FLFisherman]

I bought two HHKBS. Does that count as a double conversion?  )

I don't know if I like the HHKB. Your blood money is what did the trick.

When you go back to a conventional layout you'll be all \\\\\\\\

I'm to the point where I only try to hit backspace above enter when I'm on a 60% board. Which means on the rare occasions I use my Poker now, I'm all screwed up.

[demik]

Should be moving onto the next person on Monday.

[Mattr567]

Should be moving onto the next person on Monday.

Yay thats me! Funny how the last guy only lives 20min away from where I live

[fohat.digs]

These epic TL;DR threads make my eyes glaze over.

Am I dense or wouldn't it be better to have concise finite dedicated threads for things like "tours" and specific discussions?

Somewhere along the line it seemed like I was on the bus for an HHKB tour, but I have no idea how to backtrack it.
