I had a colleague who had to have some late 80s all-metallic keyboard. When he was typing it was even louder than a typewriter. He also had no indoor voice or any awareness how loud his antics were to the rest of the office. 🤬👎😡

My parents are Traditiinist or Silent generation, our family skipped the boomer generation. I have no idea how they use a keyboard if they even do. As far as I'm concerned they can type by smashing their face into it 😂

My mom is actually pretty good w/the keyboard, but she dk how to text. She uses the speaker. I've used a typewriter myself! lol We didn't get a computer til '98-99 and dial up internet.. member Ameritech caller ID?

My parents were in that generation but my father grew up working in communications and so they got used to the increasing sensitiivty of computer keyboards compared to conventional typewriters as they were slowly replaced in the workplace but they were still a little bit more heavy handed than was necessary. It is a shame that so few people today can touch type.

Yes, my dad - like he's on manual typewriters having to type through an original and four carbons! With three fingers. Geez dad, just press the keys!

I’m a loud typer (typist)… I’m not a boomer though. I think I’m just kind of a clumsy bull in a China shop type of person

[DaveToo]

I'm a boomer that grew up on typewriters, but I don't need to punch keys like I'm sending an arm with a letter attached to it up to meet with ribbon and paper.

[DeeDeeDeVour]

My parents are pretty "smooth" when they type on keyboards.

[TuxTheAstronaut]

Mine don’t both of them started using computers back in college when computers had mostly replaced typewriters

[llorando]
