All depends on how you use it, I guess.

Remind me to submit that one to Marvel.
I'm sure he could be one of the X-Men.

Goodaltgamer: To clean this mess you can either go the hard way with alcohol and those sticks you use for cleaning your ears,

or (to be used with caution as it does not work for all keyboards)

you remove the keys from the keyboard, it is a bit like with the dentist, you can either carefully pull them or use good old lever force to remove them, put them into a big towel, so that they do not touch each other and wash them with your clothes in the washing machine on low temperature though. BUT not very producer does have a good paint on the keys, so it might diminish quicker. But you can also use this method to clean them easier with alcohol.

Plus when you removed the keys you can remove the dirt just below them as well.

Pangaea666: Easier to put the keyboard in the washing machine.
I found it is easier to climb into the washer myself and get a good heavy duty clean going. Just saves a lot of time that would be wasted cleaning a keyboard for 2 minutes.

Fairfox: All I know is tap-taping on keyboards too often bends mah nails inwards :/. Ugleee.
How...how hard are you typing...? O_o
Typically one does it at a flat angle with the pads of the finger striking the keys. Not, like...scratching at it.

Don't know about yours, but who the hell still uses white/beige keyboards or anything white on a PC?

Anyway, mine is composed of detritus, dead skin cells, hair, spermatozoa, seminal fluid and tinea scrapings.

I think she lives out in the open, somewhere in the US badlands perhaps.

After reading some stuff I'll be always wary of using other peoples hardware.

Heck do I know, that's not my keyboard on the picture. My entire PC setup is all black.

F4LL0UT: Okay, that's a mystery that I've been wondering about for ages. You know that disgusting stuff that tends to appear on keyboards over time?

Exhibit A
...

So, what is it really? And how the hell does it appear even in spots you don't usually touch? I mean, for frigg's sake, it's on my home key. THE HOME KEY!
To be 100% conclusive and accurate, we'll need you to post your web browser history for the last say... 12 months. That might yield some clues. :o)
