Tintyping
Join us! We are tintyping. We reject your plastic electronic computer keyboards which fatigue your fingers, rust your diners, and cause you to ceaselessly kowtow to Karl Rove.
Tintyping is the future. It’s a future where all the diners are rust-free, Karl Rove is ignored, and your fingers lovingly caress that tin keyboard every hour of the day. That tin keyboard that lets you tintype with reckless abandon, throwing away the ancient plastic keyboards of your great-ancestors.
If Groucho Marx was still alive today he would certainly be a tintyper. If the ant from Pixar’s A Bug’s Life ever started his own web site he would create it with a tintyping keyboard. If spacewomen from the future landed on Earth and started sending out harshly worded memos — as they are often wont to do — they would type up those memos on tinboards (Tinpedia asserts that “tinboard” is an acceptable shortening of tin keyboard.)
I can’t vouch for licking a tin keyboard. Best to just restrict yourself to typing on it. I’m sure Cory Doctorow has one by now, securely hidden somewhere within his cape.
Get yours today! It’s the perfect St. Patrick’s Day gift for that special someone in your life. Don’t terrorize them with continued harassing phone calls and by stalking them on Facebook. No, show them how you really feel by forcefully welcoming them to the tintyping revolution. It’s like the Ron Paul revolution, only with even more blimps!
