You people must have small elbows. I'm not exactly large or small, more like mid-range, and had trouble typing as you saw.

I could've used backspace and eventually wrote my name, but that wouldn't have been much fun.

I would never lick my keyboard, immagine all the bacteria on it from 3 years worth of spilling Milk, salsa, anything with crumbs, juices, and Val nature bars, oh dear god I got it from my sister too, who knows where it's been!

That's not so bad.

From this experiment, fat people loose the right to say their fingers are too big or the keyboard is too cramed.

Note: If your fat, your fat.

I agree, along with salsa, yogurt, cheese, ice cream, cereal, fries, burgers, steak, bacon, etc... (Anything that has 80% of fat.)
