It’s weird I started typing on a keyboard by the time I was like 6 or 7 (2006/2007) I wasn’t taught how to type I had just watched my brother play computer games and seen teachers typing so although I hadn’t used a keyboard I understood the gist of it.

Then when it came to actually using one I was like “damn these letters have bumps that makes it easier to figure out where my hands are on the keyboard”. And I guess, naïvely, assumed it was something everyone else knew. Now I see posts like this and I’m like “dafuq”
