It’s quite easy to pop the keys out of a keyboard. he probably did that, rearranged the letters, took the photo and put them back, or left them there… depends on his tastes.
No, anyone who even vaguely knows the layout of a QWERTY keyboard will not look. And since the poster is stating that it is a FACT that you will look, the existence of a large group of people who won’t make it a fail.
I’ve been using computers for around 20 years and don’t usually need to look at the keys to type, but I still looked. Not because I thought that the letters might actually be in that order, but to see where those buttons actually are. (I don’t need to consciously know where the keys are to type, my fingers almost seem to know where to go by themselves.)
I didn’t see the “You will check your keyboard” bit until after I looked and then scrolled down. If I’d seen that, I might have chosen not to look out of stubbornness.
Brian-M is right.
Being able to type on a QUERTY keyboard doesn’t mean that you can picture it readily in your mind. Typing is a more motoric task as opposed to more intellectual tasks, that are easier to recall consciously.
I would say that if you know it’s called a QWERTY keyboard but can’t readily picture the top row in your mind, then you should take all necessary steps to ensure that the gene pool does not have your children to worry about.
It has nothing to do with knowledge of QWERTY. I can type without looking at my keyboard without any problem at all, but that doesn’t mean I have my keyboard mapped out in my head.
true for me, but when it said i would check the keyboard, then i strongly resisted the urge to do so, then i remembered that s was on the second row, but x was on the third row, so then i knew it was fake without looking at the keyboard.
I didn’t have to look, but I couldn’t picture it directly in my head.
I just thought about what my fingers would do to hit each of those letters and realized it would not match the picture. I can fill out the entire keyboard mentally that way, but I can’t keep each letter placed while thinking of all the others.
That is to say, it’s easy to know where any given letter is, even without being able to picture the keyboard in your head.
If that were on a keyboard, someone would have noticed it on oh, about the first qwerty typewriter. Not the cheezburger network. We’d all already know.
Only people that have to look at their keyboard while typing would actually look to check this… this is one demotivational that a very small percentile of people should fall for.
Me too. I can type easily without looking at the keys (thanks to many hours spent programming the Apple ][e and in Qbasic as a teenager) but I don’t actually *know* where the keys are without looking. My fingers find the button I need to press without consciously thinking about the location of the button.
I’ll happily take your challenge. My keyboard is currently on a shelf partway under my desk, and I can’t see any of the keys, yet I’m having no problems typing this. I didn’t look because my fingers know where the keys are, so I just had to imagine myself typing “sex”, and I knew it was a fake.
Just because _you_ haven’t learned to type properly, doesn’t mean the rest of us haven’t. (I actually taped over the keycaps as an exercise when I was learning touch-typing.)
Who would need to know? The majority of the people that use this site are probably very knowledgable of the layout of the keyboard. …but then again… it also says sex.
Fact: over 76% of the human population are physically incapable of liking their elbow.
Fact: Over 96% of the people who read this will try. (unless they’ve seen this before, but that doesn’t count.)
Me too. Of course, typing for money as a transcriptionist helps.
Other fact: I typed all this without looking at my keyboard. In fact, my desk has one of those “roll out” keyboard spots. It is never rolled out when I am using the computer.
if you look at where the X should be related to the S, the W is there (and L J are in place pf the W E assuming the S is still in its rightful place) — why would a ‘shopper’ shop the other letters out of place, when they’re out of focus in the final picture
Did anyone notice the other keys that are blurred out. Looks like WIP is right below. And what about the keys above not sure what those symbols are but pretty sure they’re not numbers.
The fact that most of you are obliquely denying or admitting looking unto your keyboard makes you an auto-fail, you all looked, unconciously you disproved the picture by looking.
I didn’t need to look. Not only do I use the qwerty keyboard on my laptop (because I really don’t get on the computer that much) but I also have the qwerty layout on my cellphone and in 8th grade we had to take a typing class where they put cover’s over the keys so that you couldn’t see which buttons you were pressing. That plus I’ve seen this joke before.
i use WASD, its arrow keys that are impractical, because they are so far away from the other keys, and if you use your left hand for keys, using WASD puts your thumb right on the space bar.
I wish people weren’t such arseholes about this, people are well aware that it doesn’t say that. I just checked to remind myself what was there and see what they had changed, before reading the caption
I looked not because I needed to see that it didn’t spell sex but to find out what the hell the three buttons above that were because they look like curly braces but are not because they don’t have the brackets under the braces.
Too bad I game using WASD movement keys so called this as fake right off the bat. Not to mention one of the first lessons in typing class way back in middle school was to align your hands over ASD and JKL.
Hey everyone look, “gullible” is written on the ceiling…
ohh,looking at the keys on top in the pic really ruins it.
but before i noticed those,yes,i looked at my keyboard.
to check where s, e and x really are.
no,i don’t need to look at my keyboard for typing.
How most of you don’t understand? It’s the FACT that you WILL look at your keyboard when you see this picture and see, that there is nothing like “sex” in same row! OMG that’s why it IS DEMOTIVATIONAL! Because you would be sad or whatever negative, because there isn’t any “sex” on your keyboard…
I stared at it for ages and thought ‘cmon, you know it’s not there, YOU KNOW IT! You sit on your computer non stop you’d realise if it said that’ and my head was just forced down by the benefit of the doubt.
no i wont. qwerty. why should i?
but i see why you did. you were so fast thinking, you understood the first part so f**in fast, that you had to check it before you read the second line.
next time be a bit mor patient. read everything. everywhere.
i hate tl;dr;er’s
without looking, I can recite the entire qwerty layout
i pronounce it like this: qwertyoop, assdifguhjackal, zexcivbinim.
didn’t need to look
poster fail
i mean seriously, how can you be fooled? the e is in “qwerty”, so it can’t be in “sex.”
For everyone who said, “I looked, and then I read the caption”, how can you do that? How can you see the picture without reading the caption at the same time??
FACT
This is not related to whether or not you can type without looking at your keyboard. It is whether you keep in mind the keys on the keyboard or just type with the keys programmed in your subconscious.
People tend to be curious and skeptic. If they see something that looks real but they know isn’t they will still check.
I knew it wasn’t real but I checked anyway, mostly to see exactly where the letters were.
I can touch-type, but it is more subconscious, so if you wanted me to draw a keyboard from memory I’d need to type out words on an air-keyboard to figure out where all the keys are.
Every single person who commented on this photo has looked at the picture, and around half of you will have looked at your keyboards. At least have the guts to admit it (I did!), instead of calling everyone a fail :L
almost… I thought about the keys after seeing the picture (didn’t see the words until I scrolled down tho). I didn’t look at my ‘real’ keyboard, but I did on the one I had in my brain.
Close, but not enough. Good try author
It is perfect time to make some plans for the future and it’s time to be happy. I have read this put up and if I may I desire to recommend you few fascinating things or advice. Perhaps you could write next articles relating to this article. I desire to read more things about it!
Fact: OP is wrong. S is on the second row, E on the third, and X on the first. Nice try, but that’ll only work on noobs.
this
But y’know the buttons ARE suspiciously close to each other…
ya know….. if u look at it this way…… it technically spells it diagonally if you look at it as middle row top row and bottom row
It’s quite easy to pop the keys out of a keyboard. he probably did that, rearranged the letters, took the photo and put them back, or left them there… depends on his tastes.
^ Thank you Captain Obvious-we’d be lost without you
No, the OP is right. The picture is wrong, and will make most check their keyboards immediately.
No, anyone who even vaguely knows the layout of a QWERTY keyboard will not look. And since the poster is stating that it is a FACT that you will look, the existence of a large group of people who won’t make it a fail.

I didn’t see the “You will check your keyboard” bit until after I looked and then scrolled down. If I’d seen that, I might have chosen not to look out of stubbornness.
lol
i looked because i was like: “ehm why would i have to look on my keyboard?” *looks* *gets the pun* *feels stupid*
(i can type blindfolded)
I once moved the buttons of some keyboards in the computer room to be in alphabetic order and to say sex.
I should do that at school on Monday… I’d probably get in trouble but I’d be dying with laughter! “Why when I press ‘I’ does the screen say ‘H’!?!”
No, if you pressed I, you’d get an O.
He just got it backwards, that’s all. I’d probably be wondering if I was either hallucinating or just constantly missing.
If keyboards had buttons with letters on them, they would be called buttonboards.
There is no pun.
Agreed.
Brian-M is right.
Being able to type on a QUERTY keyboard doesn’t mean that you can picture it readily in your mind. Typing is a more motoric task as opposed to more intellectual tasks, that are easier to recall consciously.
QWERTY MOTHERF**KER
I would say that if you know it’s called a QWERTY keyboard but can’t readily picture the top row in your mind, then you should take all necessary steps to ensure that the gene pool does not have your children to worry about.
oh shut up
I take it you couldn’t.
Wow, how did you manage to mistype QWERTY??? idiot…
maybe it’s just his keyboard
It has nothing to do with knowledge of QWERTY. I can type without looking at my keyboard without any problem at all, but that doesn’t mean I have my keyboard mapped out in my head.
THIS.
IS.
NEW DEVONSHIRE
true for me, but when it said i would check the keyboard, then i strongly resisted the urge to do so, then i remembered that s was on the second row, but x was on the third row, so then i knew it was fake without looking at the keyboard.
I didn’t have to look, but I couldn’t picture it directly in my head.

That is to say, it’s easy to know where any given letter is, even without being able to picture the keyboard in your head.
You know it’s called a QWERTY, but you had to check and make sure it wasn’t a QSEXTY keyboard? Really?
If that were on a keyboard, someone would have noticed it on oh, about the first qwerty typewriter. Not the cheezburger network. We’d all already know.
It was very hard not to look for me. I know the lay out well, but still, funny pic.
if you dent check then how did you now what row thy or on
I totally looked, they were right
Noob
i did not
and this
Damnit!
I think you meant “dammit” you language noob.
Actually he spelt it right, you can use either or.
IT’S A TRAP!
*facepalm* I checked
I… might have checked my keyboard.
There. I admitted it.
Didn’t do it.
FACT
I didn’t even glance at my keyboard, not even while typing this.
i looked twice *hangs head in shame*
I’m still looking and I can’t find it anywhere!
Smash face on keyboard, post results.

Epic win…
Only people that have to look at their keyboard while typing would actually look to check this… this is one demotivational that a very small percentile of people should fall for.
not really… I can easily type without lookin at my keys (thanks to online gaming) but this made me do a double take… lol
Me too. I can type easily without looking at the keys (thanks to many hours spent programming the Apple ][e and in Qbasic as a teenager) but I don’t actually *know* where the keys are without looking. My fingers find the button I need to press without consciously thinking about the location of the button.
Yes, this. Just because I can type without looking does not mean that I automatically know where each key is.
Anyone who insists they “know” their keyboard should try prying all the keys off and replacing them by memory alone, see how well they do…
And yes, I looked. After I read the caption, I couldn’t help but look.
I’ll happily take your challenge. My keyboard is currently on a shelf partway under my desk, and I can’t see any of the keys, yet I’m having no problems typing this. I didn’t look because my fingers know where the keys are, so I just had to imagine myself typing “sex”, and I knew it was a fake.
Just because _you_ haven’t learned to type properly, doesn’t mean the rest of us haven’t. (I actually taped over the keycaps as an exercise when I was learning touch-typing.)
You don’t have to “know” your keyboard.
Are you using a QWERTY keyboard?
yes?
Is there an “S” and an “X” on either side of the “E”?
no?
Problem Solved.
^ This.
I know where some keys are by heart, but I’d have to act like I’m typing to map out a keyboard from memory.
I look at my keyboard while I type, but I still didn’t check. I already know ttis isn’t true.
I knew about QWERTY keyboards, but the naiveness just impulsed me to glance. Bleh.
Who would need to know? The majority of the people that use this site are probably very knowledgable of the layout of the keyboard. …but then again… it also says sex.
People on this site… x_x
What I was thinking: “OH EM GEE SECKS WOOOO- wait…”
fact. anyone who has taken a typing class on a qwerty keyboard wouldn’t bother to check.
why should anyone take typing lessons?
Easy elective? I learned to type when I was 8, but I still took typing in middle school.
Fact: anyone who knows that the top row says “qwerty” shouldn’t fall for this.
Fact: I knew that but still did a double take
fact:elmer fudd like butt secks
^This^
Fact. Your statement is not a fact.
Saw the word sex, looked down on my keyboard, was throughly disappointed that the keyboard doesn’t spell sex. Read the demotivational, *facepalm*
Now if only I can figure out how to lick my elbow.
Licking your elbow isn’t as hard as people say.
Fact: over 76% of the human population are physically incapable of liking their elbow.
Fact: Over 96% of the people who read this will try. (unless they’ve seen this before, but that doesn’t count.)
Misspelled licking PERSONAL FAIL *facepalm*
Same :/
nope, I know my keyboard.
I definitely looked
HAHA i can type without looking, but i had to look instantly when i saw the word sex… and to top it off i just realized that the keyboard says qwerty!
Know my keyboard. Work with computers all the time.
…I still looked xD
Ahh poop.. I checked, and I really tried not to… but, I…. couldnt resist
Didn’t look, I know the keyboard way too well 8)
same here
Me too. Of course, typing for money as a transcriptionist helps.
Other fact: I typed all this without looking at my keyboard. In fact, my desk has one of those “roll out” keyboard spots. It is never rolled out when I am using the computer.
Um… good for you?
Wow, so impressive. Or not.
I knew it wasn’t there and I looked anyway… *shame*
You failed.
I didn’t check.. I’m not that stupid.
someone should write, THE GAME on a keyboard…i would look. btw i lost the game ;(
Your mom lost the game when the condom broke in her mouth and she spit in her lap.
FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
thanks.. >:(
Fact: False.
FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!
I looked at the image and knew right away that it wasn’t there.
I had to just had to look anyway
you were cheaking for sex? i was cheaking for spys or…

WHAT THE FFUUUUUU-!!!
*boom*
Fact: this picture is so badly photo shopped it aint even funny.
Not shopped… some one ‘re-keyed’ the keyboard
if you look at where the X should be related to the S, the W is there (and L J are in place pf the W E assuming the S is still in its rightful place) — why would a ‘shopper’ shop the other letters out of place, when they’re out of focus in the final picture
Not even tempted to look.
agreed. didn’t even look while I typed this.
same, still havent looked, and its been like 5 minutes since i saw it.
Touch-typer, didn’t even bother.
Did anyone notice the other keys that are blurred out. Looks like WIP is right below. And what about the keys above not sure what those symbols are but pretty sure they’re not numbers.
Ugh, I am pretty sure I have a qsexty keyboard so I didn’t have to look. OH WAIT, qwerty and OP is fail.
I don’t look at the keyboard ever, too, but I looked when I saw the picture – I admit that…
wer?
Didn’t even glance. Knew it right when I saw it. Lol.
I looked at my keyboard before reading the caption.
Then I read the caption and I LOL’d.
^^^^ me too
The fact that most of you are obliquely denying or admitting looking unto your keyboard makes you an auto-fail, you all looked, unconciously you disproved the picture by looking.
That doesn’t make sense. Learn to use words.
I use a computer most of the day when i’m stuck at home, only time i ever look at it is when i look down to think about what to type.
Should have written a percentage, like ’90 percent of people will look at their keyboard.’ It’ll still be wrong, but it won’t be such a sad fail.
Damn! Totally looked.
Except I don’t have to check to know the S, E, and X aren’t beside each other.
I use a keyboard so often that I know they’re not without looking.
Fail.
its in finish lol
you win this round meatbag!
I resisted! Hell Yeah!
I didn’t need to look. Not only do I use the qwerty keyboard on my laptop (because I really don’t get on the computer that much) but I also have the qwerty layout on my cellphone and in 8th grade we had to take a typing class where they put cover’s over the keys so that you couldn’t see which buttons you were pressing. That plus I’ve seen this joke before.
OMG you use the QWERTY keyboard on your laptop? Why the f**k would you mention that? So does everyone else, dumbass!
Not necessarily, Some use Dvorak – which has a far more sensible key layout.
Every gamer knows WASD…
Most of us use the arrow keys instead. WASD is impractical, anyway.
i use WASD, its arrow keys that are impractical, because they are so far away from the other keys, and if you use your left hand for keys, using WASD puts your thumb right on the space bar.
Not only that, but the arrow keys are on the side of the keyboard closest to the mouse, so if you use arrow keys + mouse, it’s incredibly awkward.
I wish people weren’t such arseholes about this, people are well aware that it doesn’t say that. I just checked to remind myself what was there and see what they had changed, before reading the caption
Fact confirmed.
fact busted, n00b
FACT
The OP is right, blind n00bs.
FACT
You just looked again.
I looked not because I needed to see that it didn’t spell sex but to find out what the hell the three buttons above that were because they look like curly braces but are not because they don’t have the brackets under the braces.
anyone else have a pedobear keyboard?
I knew instantly what was where.
This would only work on children or stupid people
…
Damnit…
…..DAMNIT
Nope. No need to. Pretty sure a large portion of the people who saw this did not look, so “FACT” is pretty stupid to put there.
Too bad I game using WASD movement keys so called this as fake right off the bat. Not to mention one of the first lessons in typing class way back in middle school was to align your hands over ASD and JKL.
Hey everyone look, “gullible” is written on the ceiling…
Didn’t look. Didn’t need to check.
Although the irony is that we all need to look at the keyboard sooner or later, like for writing a comment.
DAMN! It got me straight away!! – didn’t even look at the comment;straight to the keyboard :\
It’s kinda spoiled if you notice the keys at the top. Seriously, what keys are those?
ohh,looking at the keys on top in the pic really ruins it.
but before i noticed those,yes,i looked at my keyboard.
to check where s, e and x really are.
no,i don’t need to look at my keyboard for typing.
….
I looked >_>
…..
Nope, I know my keyboard!
Oh well, I did…. But hey… It’s better than losing a ga- DAMMIT!
How most of you don’t understand? It’s the FACT that you WILL look at your keyboard when you see this picture and see, that there is nothing like “sex” in same row! OMG that’s why it IS DEMOTIVATIONAL! Because you would be sad or whatever negative, because there isn’t any “sex” on your keyboard…
But the fact is that not everyone WILL look at the keyboard. You are the one who doesn’t get it.
I stared at it for ages and thought ‘cmon, you know it’s not there, YOU KNOW IT! You sit on your computer non stop you’d realise if it said that’ and my head was just forced down by the benefit of the doubt.
qwerty ftw
no i wont. qwerty. why should i?
but i see why you did. you were so fast thinking, you understood the first part so f**in fast, that you had to check it before you read the second line.
next time be a bit mor patient. read everything. everywhere.
i hate tl;dr;er’s
without looking, I can recite the entire qwerty layout
i pronounce it like this: qwertyoop, assdifguhjackal, zexcivbinim.
didn’t need to look
poster fail
i mean seriously, how can you be fooled? the e is in “qwerty”, so it can’t be in “sex.”
I looked.
For everyone who said, “I looked, and then I read the caption”, how can you do that? How can you see the picture without reading the caption at the same time??
It is a fact. Someday, you will look at your keyboard. Not necessarily after seeing the picture. I didn’t, yet.
By the way, these keys SHOULD be next to each other!
FACT
This is not related to whether or not you can type without looking at your keyboard. It is whether you keep in mind the keys on the keyboard or just type with the keys programmed in your subconscious.
People tend to be curious and skeptic. If they see something that looks real but they know isn’t they will still check.
I knew it wasn’t real but I checked anyway, mostly to see exactly where the letters were.
I can touch-type, but it is more subconscious, so if you wanted me to draw a keyboard from memory I’d need to type out words on an air-keyboard to figure out where all the keys are.
Stop being smart. You make the rest of us look bad.
Act smarter to make me look bad.

What are those symbols by the 8 and 9?

Every single person who commented on this photo has looked at the picture, and around half of you will have looked at your keyboards. At least have the guts to admit it (I did!), instead of calling everyone a fail :L
Our French keyboards have the letters S, D, F next to each other (SDF means homeless)
Problem?
