After reading the "We all have bad days" thread, it occured to me that there are several radically different ways to bash your head into a keyboard.
Which method are you?

I've got a geeky IBM keyboard that's built like a tank, so hitting my head with it would lead to a concussion.. instead I hit the keyboard with my hand - and have on a couple occasions injured my hand in the process. (the keyboard was fine)
That was back when I had more pent-up aggression.. now I'm too mellow.  |

Break it in half over my knee. And then sleep on it like a broken, helplessly paralyzed pillow.

I haven't broken any keyboards but I have replaced mice that I have slammed repeatedly on my desktop until they have shattered.

all i know is if you want to actually post your 'keyboard smash', it's best to save a copy of your message prior to smashin' - i just accidentally quit explorer just short of posting a message there; my random mashing quit the browser before i posted.
p.s. YES, much more liable to go for the mouse instead of the keyboard, though i haven't killed any yet lol... though i should be careful 'cuz my lil' wacom tablet serves as my mousepad. much more concerned about that - got plenty of mice to fill in if one breaks, but don't have another drawing tablet yet. _____________________

I chose to save my pretty face...however, i would have liked the option of pick up and throw against the wall. Given that my keyboard is attached (laptop) I would be throwing my whole comp instead...so I really try to refrain from that.

WTF is C3PO supposed to be USEFUL for anyway, besides whining? Stupid piece of scrap metal would be more useful recycled as a toaster. But even that would suck, because who would want to listen to a whining wussy toaster? Is he gold plated? If that's the case he should just be melted down into gold ingots. Help the economy some, and stop being so damn useless you stupid bucket of bolts! R2 is 1,000 times more useful than your tin man ass, and he's shaped like a salt and pepper shaker FFS! |

I don't do anything to my keyboard, etc. But I have been known to curse at it.
One time in particular, having spent 3 days trying to make AOL DSL work, including taking every computer and phone hookup in the house and putting them together in all possible combinations, and phone calls to a jillion people, including the maker of the modem before they got done telling me who all to to call, I cursed at the computer for probably twenty straight minutes. Just sat there and cursed at it. Realizing that it had beaten me. Eventually I got Cable DSL, which, though not without its own problems, I have managed to make work, and stay patient with, and curse very little. coco _____________________

well have you ever tried grabbing one side of the keyboard with both hands and smacking your screen violently with it ? can make things interesting especially when keys starts to fly all around in the room
