Keyboard for Blondes, designed by witless

The “Keyboard for Blondes” is a lame joke made manifest in pink plastic. Several of the keycaps have jokes silkscreened on top — the Enter key is “Yes! I Want It!”; the Backspace is “Oops!” — making the whole thing one of the first bits of pink tat I do not want to own. (Speaking of which, I think I may want to start collecting pink gadgets. It would be a waste, but oh, what a pretty shelf they’d make!)

I’ll give them one pass: Ignoring the fact that the “/” and “*” characters have meanings other than mathematical, changing them to “Divide by” and “Times” on the numpad isn’t actually that bad of an idea. Then again, who uses the numbpad that isn’t already a ten-key expert?

I can’t tell you the price because the order page is broken. Somehow I think you won’t mind.

    I’m falling in love with the dice-numbered keys on the numbpad.
    Need to find a silkscreen machine….

    Truly the best thing about this is that the ~` key is called the “Any Key.” Homer would be proud.

    Exposing the lameness behind dumb blonde jokes and expressing a love for pink gadgets; you, sir, are made of gender norm-defying win.

    In fact my natural blonde sister pretty liked this thing. She saw it in the shop half year ago and immediately bought one.

    But shouldn’t it be a chicklet keyboard? Or is this only for fully grown, legal, chicks?
