What's the worst thing you ever spilled on your computer keyboard?

Dirty stories my grandmother told me – Or an eggnog.

I can’t decide…

My epidermal cells, because I type really hard and fast.

Although my keyboard has never had any occlusive liquid deposits, my relentless and unmodulated key pounding has erased many of the character key marks. ;-o

I reserve the right not to incriminate myself. However, someone once destroyed one of my keyboards by spilling a bunch of milk on it.

Never spilled anything on a computer keyboard !

Coffee.

My boss wasn’t pleased.

A litre bottle of fake c

Cigarette ashes….....
Long time ago

I don’t use computers anymore, so I’m save from spilling.
And I don’t smoke any longer.

I zotched with a static shock from my finger. Ruined the key board.

@Brian1946 Have they formed a civilization on your keyboard yet?

@Mimishu1995

Let me do a microscopic keyboard examination.

You’re right- they have! ;-0
They’re communicating with tiny epidermal cell phones. ;-)

A splash of Pappy Van Winkle Bourbon.

I cried for days

Unsweet tea. Once a Coke.

My keyboard survived just fine. But I have ruined a coouple of mice with spilled liquids.

I try to keep mine clean all the time. About once a week I turn my laptop sideways and blow any dust and crumbs out with compressed air. The amount is shocking! I will also take a piece of scotcvh tape and slide it between the keys to pick up anything that has landed there.

I never have spilled anything, but I’m a little neurotic about. I try to keep food and liquids far away. Neurotic but not perfect, it could happen.

Now that you mention the Doritos crumbs, maybe I have some crumbs in there I’m oblivious too? I do dust the keyboard now and then. Maybe I should buy another compressed air thingy. I haven’t had one in years.

I used to vacuum the keys until I sucked one off its mounting. Now I stick with compressed air. A $4 can lasts me about a month.

@LuckyGuy
You could get one of those cheap electric PC dusters

Not me, but I witnessed a co-worker drop a piece of cake, icing side down, on a keyboard. Messy.

Decades ago I spilled a smoothie (fruit, yogurt, honey) into my keyboard. Fortunately, it was a quick fix, unplug, throw away, new keyboard. Nothing more offensive than coffee or wine since then.

A whole bottle of wood glue. I just unplugged it and chucked it in the trash. No coming back from that.

@Forever_Free That splash probably cost way more than the keyboard.

@Forever_Free I hope you licked it off the keyboard!

We’ve seen posts from drunk jellies, but what would we see from a drunk keyboard?

I’ll take on any fuggin’ keyboard here, an’ fuggin’ kig ids azz. <hick> <barp> :p

Woke up with dried red wine all over myself, my bed and the lappie. On the up side I learned how to replace a laptop keyboard.

I spilled a beer on a keyboard and killed it. They replaced it for $35 (if I recall correctly). Which was great because it was a really nice keyboard.

Plug:
The company is Unicomp, formed by employees of the IBM keyboard operation in Lexington, Kentucky. The IBM Model M was a well-loved product, so they bought the factory and make updated versions today. They originated the market for clicky mechanical-switch keyboards

I once spilled a full cup of coffee into my keyboard. I use a touch screen now, folded like a tent, so nothing gets near the keyboard. Sometimes food splashes on the screen, but I have a container of screen wipes for that.

I don’t know. I don’t ever spill anything on it but it gets dusty under the keys. I use soap and water and hold it under the shower and scrub it with a brush. I wrap the cord around the shower rod overnight and let it hang to dry and it looks brand new.
