  Did you live in the same town as the mandem as mandem getting up >
  
  What?  I have no idea what any of that means. >
  
  Oh my god. What. Even with almond shaped nails...what?? I have longer nails too and all of my keycaps look just fine. Probably because I don't type like a complete animal. Also how is typing with just the tips of your nails even comfortable? >
  
  It’s more from gaming, where keys are tapped using the nails due to the hand position. >
  
  Can confirm. My keyboard looks like this on WASD and I have fairly short nails. The upper left corner of the A is just gone entirely. >
  
  cutting my nails so i can go fast on monkeytype >
  
  How fast we talking? 30s I think I hit 68 at best with 100%, terrible I know >
  
  maybe 100 plus? i guess. i'm currently at 97 wpm on 30s with 98 percent accuracy. it's not the best but i'm working on it. yours is good tho especially with 100 percent accuracy >
  
  That’s really good even for 97! I’m on gateron brown with the varmilo v2 summit >
  
  I trim my nails because I hate the feeling of typing on nails instead of finger pads >
  
  Same here. >
  
  Once a week, every week.  Fuck the keycaps... I just hate the feel and sound of nails hitting plastic. >

  Depends what row. Pads for upper rows, tips for lower. If you use your pads on all rows, you must be physically moving your entire hands all the time, surely. So when your fingers are on the home row, and you want to type M, do you move your whole hand towards you so you can still use your pad? >
  
  Alright good point, thank you >
  
  just have an extremely bad habit of biting ur nails then u never have to clip them lol >
  
  Me gnawing at my hand while I scrolled to this “haha yeah” >
  
  Lol, yeah clipping my nails is not something I’ve ever had to think about >
  
  People’s nails touch their keycaps? Lol I let my nails grow out relatively long before I cut them but never had that issue >
  
  I need to rant here for a second because I was just thinking about my nails. I play guitar and I’m trying to get into finger style, so my right hand nails are like, long, and I feel so weird like handing people things they probably think I’m like insane cuz my left hand nails are nice and short vs my right hand where I have like talons basically. I started working with this new girl too and like anytime I do anything I’m like god don’t look at my right hand or like just ask me why tf they’re so long so I don’t seem like a weirdo. So yea that’s it. >
  
  Just explain the reason? 
  My right index and thumb nails are both longer than the rest (I bite my nails.... I know shitty habit), also cause I play guitar (classical). >
  
  It also improves the feel of spherical keycaps (DSA etc.) IMO. >
  
  I use press-on nails for holidays and special occasions sometimes, and I'm always terrified they'll scratch my keycaps, so I end up taking them off as soon as I get home >
  
  Buy double-shot PBT so that forgetting cutting my nails doesn't matter. >
  
  Wait a damn minute. Is that why my keys are fading? I play guitar sometimes and just can't get used to the feel of a guitar pick so my nails are almost always 2mm long. I always thought I had sandpaper fingers lol >
  
  Should be cutting your nails so you don't scratch up your girl >
  
  cutting my nails so i can get 150pp plays on osu >
  
  cutting my nails, so I can hit 120 wpm at monkeytype >
  
  I cut my nails to type faster on a keyboard and play faster on a piano >
  
  Getting custom acrylic nails for custom nail on keycap typing sounds >
  
  my a key on modo2 is fucked due to this lol >
  
  I feel seen. >
  
  Not so much to protect my keycaps but typing is usually what makes me stop being lazy and trim my nails.
  I can't stand the feeling of the edge of a nail hitting a bottomed out keycap. It feels like it transmits through the very bone itself. >
  
  The rhyme... >
  
  I’d feel personally attacked, but I’ll allow this cuz it’s relate af. >
  
  Holy shit, is this why my D key keeps scratching even after the 3rd replacement. I though cuz my hands were a bit sweatier than others, but man. >
  
  Painting my cut nails so I look fabulous while not scratching my keycaps 💪 >
  
  I read "cutting my balls" not "my nails". I don't trust myself with words anymore... >
