So. I was smoking a bong with a friend.. and instead of smoking it, she kept messing with my keyboard and talking, and she spills the bong water on the keys. Like, 5 keys aren't hammering. I'm itching to mess around on a keyboard, but I can't, because I need to leave it until I get it repaired. Anyone else spill bong water on your shit? It sucks
Yes, yes I have. Also, there is hot glue I cant get off, stuck to the middle of my touch mouse. Sucks, but an easy fix forsure.
lol repairs? pop off ur keys and clean it? buy a new keyboard, a usb keyboard is like 5-10$ on newegg. now if it is a keyboard like my saitek eclipse 2 with color changing backlights, oh i would fuck someone up. i paid 60$ for this keyboard 5 years ago.
Often times you can use a hair dryer on a low setting and dry out any non-sugar spills, the connection should be solid again and the keys usually work once dry... and if it's not too fancy or covered in LEDs and screens etc., it's possible to thin out sugary messes with some water, which you can do more safely by opening and dabbing with a damp q-tip. This reminds me of a guy I used to know who'd run his old keyboard through the dishwasher. He probably did it ten or twenty times, before it bit the dust.
use the on-screen keyboard if it isnt working i spilt the bong, with a full cone, into my carpet ): ...was so sad, i almost cried lol
Do you have a Dishwasher? Crazy as it might sound, wash it in the top shelf of the dishwasher. DO NOT use the heated dry. Then let it air out for a few days. let me find a reference; Ah, here we go; How to Clean a Keyboard in a Dishwasher - wikiHow Should work, let us know the results.
I know, but it works. I have done it a few times. Being in Az I usually set them at an angle, thin side towards the keys, outside for a week in 100 + temp.

Lol I was reading down this thread ready to make this exact post and saw yours. They must think he's nuts when he says he's "itching to mess around with a keyboard" since they're thinking comp accessories hahah
if the OP spilled bong water on the friends keyboard, shed be asking for a new one. as a matter of fact, you should be asking her to pay for a new one. its not being a dick, its just taking responsibility for your actions.
I agree with that statement. If I were to deface anyones property by accident, male or female, I would certainly replace it. I would expect one of the opposite or same sex to do the same thing in return. It is the responsible and polite thing to do.
