I always get goosebumps toward the end of Hurry, Hurry by Air Traffic Controller (Spotify link). I love the song and even though it's upbeat the message is poignant.

I got an HP laptop in university and someone coughed a mouthful of tea onto my keyboard a few months later. At first I kept "a" on my clipboard so I could paste it as needed while typing, but soon other keys followed. So my computer is over 6 years old and I've been typing for almost 6 years using:

  • The 4 on my num pad as the A key
  • The 7 on my numpad as Q
  • The 5 on my numpad as tab
  • The 2 on my numpad as Z
  • The help/F1 is ESC
  • The numpad 1 to type 1 and exclamation points

Recently, I've also changed the minus on my numpad to be ` (backtick). I don't have a capslock. Thankfully, the damage didn't continue to spread because I would have eventually run out of keys.

Sometimes I fantasize about someone calling me out on a weird typo so I can tell them about it.

The New York Times mini crossword. There's a new one everyday and it's free to play!

Thanks so much! I hope I'll be able to participate more soon :)

 

Alaska by Little Hurt is one of my favourite songs and this challenge gave me the idea to try out this brownie baked alaska recipe. Absolutely delicious, but I got meringue all over my hands. Will be attempting again!

P.S. sorry I'm so late!

Thanks so much for doing this! I just found the Reddit community a couple of weeks before the exodus and really enjoyed looking at all the beautiful creations and taking inspiration.

I hope I can contribute to the community as soon as my kitchen situation improves. If I get to a challenge late, would I still be able to post it or are submissions only accepted during that challenge's week?
