F: Scroll Lock

throwaway70906: scroll lock. who. why.

kim_k29: Insert in F is too kind. Hit it once by accident and watch your entire paragraph get eaten one letter at a time while you keep typing.

chunky_falcon: Num Lock exists purely so you can type a phone number and have nothing show up

alex.k3702: Caps Lock in C is right. Useless 99% of the time, but then a government form demands ALL CAPS and suddenly it's the MVP.

dave_j3324: Tab belongs in F. I press it every day and nobody has ever brought me a soda.
