Is that "Insert" button PURPOSELY put where it is on the keyboard to drive people insane?



I have NEVER wanted to use it (I don't even think it's a useful option) - - but it is SO close to buttons we DO need to use that I accidentally hit it relatively often and I'm then, like, "Wth? Where are all my letters going?"

  • OMG!
    I don't even wanna think about it.

    Trump doesn't have a single key that fits any of my locks.

    And if he dared even try, it be forcible entry.

    And if we're talking about keyboards...
    he's the only one with a Covfefe key.  Who needs it?

    That nasty old perv gives nasty old pervs a bad name.

    The Trump key is Long and skinny. The proper way to use it is to turn it sideways and jam it straight up his bum

    Here, you can see the "Trump Key" being used effectively

      Women should not press it too quickly nor in rapid succession, or they might end up pregnant!

    We are talking about the INSERT BUTTON, not inserting your appendage.

    That entire block of keys is almost pointless.

    You're probably right.


    I know I don't hang around there, except by accident.

    I'm not exactly nuts about where the hyphen is or where the exclamation point is.  Every time I have to type "CHEERS!" back to our Canadian pal, I am reminded how irritating it is to reach over with the pinky across and above the normal freaking row.  

    So, yes, I feel your pain.
