is always in nerd mode Actually, QWERTY keyboards were designed to be more efficient because the most common letter combinations are separated, so the typewriter keys would not get jammed as often.
The typewriter keys got jammed because the mechanism used to type would be more likely to jam if two keys near each other were pressed in quick succession. By placing the keys on opposite sides of the keyboard, it allowed people to type faster with fewer key jams.
It isn't slowing you down. You're alternating hands as much as possible so the mechanism doesn't jam as much. Once you get used to it, it's actually faster to type on a typewriter with the QWERTY keyboard than with an alphabetically arranged keyboard.
But once you're used to it, you type faster than you would on an alphabetical keyboard because there are fewer jams and your hands alternate as much as possible.
The comma was used to transition between the alphabet and "amirite," and to be correct, the comma is supposed to be inside of the quotation marks, so they were correct.
you slid your finger across the keyboard to type the "alphabet", amirite?
YYA!

Well, I meant inconvenient as in as hard as possible to go fast enough to jam your keys.

Which is what I meant by incovinient. It slows you down to reduce jams.

That's the problem. It's, by design, the hardest combination to get used to. It does this to stop you from jamming keys.
But once you're used to it, you type faster than you would on an alphabetical keyboard because there are fewer jams and your hands alternate as much as possible.
So? Everybody has different alphabets now, too...
Repeat.
There is no comma in the alphabet.
The comma was inside the quotations, so I just assumed it was grammatically correct and that a comma is part of the alphabet.

No, "it's like this", you see?
I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but you are incorrect.
I can use websites too. http://www.justfuckinggoogleit.com/
You're an idiot,
