Shirt Stains: “Metal” Keyboard Keys

If you’ve ever ventured into a Dollar Tree or Dollar General or even a Five Below, you’d know that you can still buy cheap hunks of plastic for mild amusement. Even in our digital, iPad kid world, there’s still a place for low cost, high-micro plastic ingestion. Just slap on some Disney character, Minion, or sports team logo and someone will buy it. I get it. We all like little trinkets, bobbles, doodads, and tchotchkes. Sometimes, though, there’s such useless things that you just have to point and laugh. And we should all be pointing and laughing at the “metal” keyboard keys.
Yes, there’s little things you would stick on top of your keyboard keys because…well, I don’t really know why you would do that. I would think it would get pretty confusing while trying to write a paper or talk to your friends. “Where’s the ‘S’ key? Is it the Skull or the ‘ROCK-ON’ button? What do I do?!?” I like that the packaging says “STICK ‘EM ANYWHERE!” I’ll tell you where to stick ’em.
“SEND YOUR MESSAGE LOUD & CLEAR!” To who? About what? What message?! Yeah, stick them on your dashboard so they can melt in the summer sun. Put them on your broken BC Rich Metal Master guitar so you look even more like a goofball. Good job, Hot topic. I’m sure these have been rotting away in some California warehouse for the past 25 years. Or probably floating somewhere in the Pacific Ocean Good stuff, everywhere. Breathe that shit in and fill your lungs.
