Description
I love type and design so I thought I'd make a fake advertisement for a product I made up.So of course I had to make it for a Sherlock-related product.
Explanation: If you've ever seen Martin Freeman type, it's adorable. He types with two fingers. In A Scandal In Belgravia, John is shown typing on his computer, barely tapping the keys a dozen times, yet an entire paragraph appears onscreen. I joked that he must be using a special John Watson keyboard.

Man, I WISH this was real. It would make my tumbling that much easier. Except my custom one would have to have an 'askdjlkdj;dslfk' key.
Thanks so much

I know, right? That would be so awesome, you'd make so much profit! (especially within the Sherlock fandom) Sadly, it seems like it wouldn't be possible, but it's still a really neat idea! :'D

You are completely correct.

Lol, I think "not gay" should be on one key, not two separate keys. It would be less useful, but more funny

Ah, but it's more subtle this way, yeah?

I couldn't make it TOO obvious, could I?

Jam Moriarty.
And that always bugged me in the Scandal.

Hahaahah "Jam Moriarty"
I didn't think of that! While "Not Gay" was definitely intentional, that one was definitely not ;D
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
"Not gay" should totally be on one key. XD
D'aww, he obviously learnt how to type from Star Trek!

I noticed how Martin typed as well and was wondering where I could get a keyboard like that! I feel a little sheepish asking this though, where does his obsession with Jam come from? I've watched both seasons a couple of times at least, and never quite catch the Jam reference.

Haha, the jam thing comes from Hark! A Vagrant, a Kate Beaton comic. The original is here: [link]
She was making fun of the fact that in most adaptations (luckily not in the BBC!verse or Ritchie!verse) Watson is portrayed as a doddering old fool, when really, he was a sharpshooting, athletic ladykiller.
The one-off joke just sort of spilled over into the fandom, and the rest is history.
Hope that clears it up!

yes! thank you! it was driving me mad trying to figure out where the jam obsession came from! that's hilarious

Great! XDD I think that keyboard must be really usefull to him xD

You notice that sometimes when he's pecking away at the keyboard he sticks his tongue out?
For anyone out there not familiar, here is a gif that's been floating around Tumblr of him typing: [link]

Oh man, Martin's little tongue movements are so adorable. The funny thing is, he actually types like that IRL. I just want to hug him.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh gosh, I know! Did you see that interview where said he just recently got a computer? He's just so... ah! I want to give him a huge hug and tell him off for being so cute at age 40. It ought to be illegal

i saw that too! It was a little frustrating but so adorable the way Martin types
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Wow, that's adorable, and incredibly observant of you-- I noticed that too, but wasn't sure, haha. Does it come with a dictionary of synonyms for brilliant?

I bet it does- along with a list of 1001 Ways To Compliment Sherlock.
