…ecnetnes a ni desu s’ti woh fo elpmaxe na epyT

Are you seriously that bored? Shouldn’t you have to do homework, study for an exam or test or something? Then why are you typing in this word?

Just don’t type “…ecnetnes a ni desu s’ti woh fo elpmaxe na epyT” and keep on working on your projects, you bored-to-death typers!
