And you thought keyboard keys were just for sparking up flame wars. Get your fingers on these fun key novelties and lighten up.

Computer Key Clocks
($17.95 each at whatonearthcatalog.com)
Some seek to Ctrl time. Others would just as soon Esc it all together. Those who want to Enter time or make it their Home? That’s just weird. Each clock, uh, clocks in at 9.75 inches square by 2.5 inches deep and requires one AA battery (not included).

Save Key Bank
($10 at uncommongoods.com)
Technically, there’s no such thing as a Save key. Whatever. Enter your coins into this jumbo keyboard key and save precious change for the laundry or the vending machine.

Delete Fly Swatter
($7.99 at perpetualkid.com)
Why make a flyswatter that favors the Delete key? Because the Backspace or Ctrl key just doesn’t convey the same level of sadism. This 17.5-inch long fly-slayer comes in black or ivory.

Keyboard S/P Shakers
($11.95 at patinastores.com)
A 1.75-inch square white S key for salt and black P key for pepper adds flavor to any meal. Pure geek flavor.

Tersumus
($14.93 at store.artlebedev.com)
You might actually use a pencil just to use this palm-sized eraser that looks like a Delete key. Unless you’re worried about wearing down that eraser to an indistinguishable nub, in which case you can just keep it on your desk as a conversation piece instead.
