This keyboard has keys that charge their tiny springs as you press them. At a moment when you least expect it, probably when you need a break, the keys start shooting up and away like popping corn from an open pot. Each key has a peg on five of its sides, poking out randomly, causing them to squirm and carom like playful puppies.
Suddenly your desk is jumble of scrambling letters, V pushing R, and 8 making like a Mexican jumping bean over ? and X. Unsuccessful at stopping the alphabetic discharge, you retrieve M from your cuff, save Delete from the threatening wheel of your chair and, as if solving a puzzle, reassemble your keyboard.-- FarmerJohn, Oct 28 2004 Perfection! http://www.unclesga...0ad39c3e91bfe684e79Turn the timer, drop the shapes . . . Just don't get caught! POP! [contracts, Oct 28 2004] Do you need a nose guard to fend off those shooting keys ?-- skinflaps, Oct 28 2004 No, maybe a sanity guard.-- FarmerJohn, Oct 28 2004 I think if they had thin strings attached to them so I could reel a crank and have them reset, it would be a little more convenient. Otherwise, it's just another game of Perfection [link]. I *hated* that game!-- contracts, Oct 28 2004 I *loved* that game! It scared the crap out of me--fear is a great motivator.-- yabba do yabba dabba, Oct 28 2004 A perfect gag gift for your "friends". Of course the box would have to be a bit misleading, in the sense of not telling the person exactly what this keyboard does...-- Psudomorph, Feb 07 2007 random, halfbakery
