Education of a Typing Man.
When we were 16 years old my friend and I spray-painted our keyboards in camouflage colors. We had just seen Hackers, wanted to copy what we saw, and – yes, 16 years old – didn’t think much further than (1) get spray paint (2) spray-paint the keyboard. Only after the paint dried did we realise we can’t read the letters on the keys anymore and, well, guess we’ll have to now type blind.

I have this friend that really likes buying different kinds of keyboards, even custom made ones. For other people, they like buying shoes or bags, but for him, it is keyboards.
