Dude, that sucks. I've spilled water on mine - shut it off, and let it sit for a good 24 hours; hopefully, that will help (mine magically fixed itself after I did that).

Electronics aren't as sensitive to liquids as you would've thought. For most devices, if you let is dry out, it'll work fine afterwards. Sticky liquids, though, suck - you might want to wipe it down with some water afterwards =\

Of course, keyboards are a commodity anyways - purchase a new one for ten bucks and move on with your life =/

Because beer is really, really, really bad.

Before you're twenty one.

Okay, here's one for the ages.

When I moved into my dorm room, I thought it'd be a great idea to have my microwave above my computer. So one day while I'm putting a bowl of Easy Mac into the microwave -- I really don't know how this happened -- part of the bowl dipped and water spilled all over my laptop. This was the second day in the room, too.

I turned it off and left it upside down on top of the air conditioning. It turned out fine, but it really scared me there for a second.

I get stuff on my keyboard all the time, and it's fine. Sometimes the "w" key doesn't like to work or the "i" gets stuck, but nothing big.

Next time you drink beer at the computer, use a TV table.

Or, next time you drink at the computer, drink something that tastes better than beer so you're less inclined to spill it.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Or Diet Pepsi.

But yeah, I spill stuff on my computer all the time and nothing long-term emerges. My scroll lock doesn't work anymore, but it's not like anyone ever uses it.

Yea, I played beer pong with my father for the first time ever this weekend. Very awkward. What does that have to do with this thread? Nothing of course.
