100-150?!?! I type about 25 when I'm in practice

Lol, I'm just a speed freak... I really love my MX Clears but might pull out my other keyboard again with Blues and type on that for like a few weeks. At least with the Clears I don't bottom them out as hard even though I feel it can bottom out very easily. I just miss my clicky ole Blues and want to use them again, but the blue backlight looks weird to me after staring at white.

Typing about 50 wpm in a library got me the attention of two girls. "Daaaaammmnnnn" they said. I like to hammer the keys, so it was really loud compared to everyone else.

The Internet is the first thing that humanity has built that humanity doesn't understand, the largest experiment in anarchy that we have ever had.

I get yelled at 24/7 for slamming keys...

*BAM BAM BBBBBBAM BAM BAM*

Teacher: Stop banging the keys!

Me: I can't help it, it's how I type...

Teacher: Do you have a disability or..?

Me: No, I just own a keyboard at home that requires a lot of force and feels much better and I'm accustomed to that.

Teacher: I don't believe it. What kind of keyboard would need that much force?

Me: *facepalm*

What cherry MX type is it? I got a blackwidow 2014, it's either razer's custom switch or I believe it's blues as they're very loud, but I don't think they need a whole lot of force to push down on

I work at Best Buy, this is all too common of an occurrence.. I get questions like "Will a 1 TB external drive hold about a thousand pictures?" "Can this computer do Minecraft?" All sorts of dumb stuff like that. Then there's those people who think Chromebooks are actual computers and not just glorified tablets.

Umm, kind of.  They are pretty low-end spec-wise, but they run a completely different OS (though chromeos should be able to run android apps soon enough, which is awesome) and they have a different target market and "usage recommendations".  They are computers, albeit not one that has a fully-fledged os.  I actually think chromebooks are really cool, I might get one as my old laptop just died and all I need it for is interwebz and streaming from my pc.  Anyone else like chromebooks?  Anyone?  Oh, alright then.

Horrible, everyone I encounter in my line of work is a college graduate, master, or doctor. It is mind blowing how useless someone is outside their fields, I don't know why the company hires these people for technology company, but hopefully the new CEO cuts these people out, it's been getting softer ever since these new people have been hired.

I heard someone mention that PC laptops look so ugly compared to macs. If I had wifi in that classroom I'd have shown him the Razer Blade...

No, samsung makes the androids, like the Sony One M8, obviously.

No idea, but the 5C is apparently $5,000 at Walmart.

(Someone actually said that to me...)
