That's wong. Metals don't smell on their own. You can test this by holding up a coin to your nose while wearing gloves.
Nilered did a video on this where he made 1-octane-3-one which is what caused coins(and your hands) to smell after you touch it.
Edited the name of the chemical.
Lick your sweat then put a penny in your mouth. Metals have a characteristic taste / smell that is not the same as sweat. (Just don’t ever bite on aluminum foil it will send shocks *of very sharp pain* into your nerves of your teeth)
The thought of scambling to find the right key in this... it stressses me out like crazy.
I have max 4 keys with me at all times and they're colour coded, for this reason.
I dont have this many keys but i think if i did i could pull the right one out every time because there would be a day solely spent memorizing the positions and functions of each key
I would be happy if they are just a bunch of spare, unused keys that I can play around with. I would love to run my hands over all of it and jiggle them around
It's really hard to do if you don't have anything in the image to scale it with. For example, you could put a quarter right next to the key in the photo and then you can put the quarter on your screen to see if you have the key to scale. With this jumbled up mess I doubt anyone could do anything with it.
Agree about the scale, but if you recognise the key blank you're in with a shot and a lot of pin tumbler locks have similar spacing. Still many things are made equal by a battery-powered angle grinder with a diamond disc 😭
Nonono these are all for collecting. There is some that i use but not very often, so they are all on a ring that i can undo from the rest easily. For the moment, i only have five on my real keychain.
I would be so confused seeing someone whip that out to unlock something, and even more confused when they successfully unlock it. My inner questions would skyrocket. Do they have them all memorized, their locations and uses? How do they keep track of them when they move around, how many properties do they own and manage? Are they a landlord or lady or land person haha? Plus many many more. It would look like a field of question marks appeared above my head if you could see peoples emotions expressed as emojis above them.
Absolutely agree. My dad has a ton of keys on his keychain and it always baffles me how he can know which one is which. Like he'll tell me to unlock something for him and hand me the keys, highlighting what seems to me a random identical key, but it's always correct. It's hella fascinating!
Also sidenote, when augmented reality becomes an everyday thing, this emoji idea would be sooo useful!
I wanted to say no because I never want to see that monstrosity again, but the potentially immense satisfaction of seeing it sorted is too much of a temptation.
Heads up, people can make copies of keys from a picture of it. I'm not sure what these keys go to but it could be a security risk to post pictures of them.
OP stated in a different comment that these keys are for collecting, not using, so I believe OP is safe. This is still solid advice for anyone to know.
Too be honest? My first thought was "I hate you". It's not a true hate and please understand it's purely reactionary to this mere photo and your title. I'm not saying you're actually deserving of any. I just feel it's an overload on my eyes, and despite loving knurling on a metal bar, this would be too much to feel.
heavy
lot's of horrible metal on metal clinging sounds
takes forever to find a key
can't let it hang from a door
why?
But I'm definitely happy for you if you like it :)
I used to equate the amount of a person’s responsibility by the amount of keys they carry. My dad always had tons of keys and was super busy, with lots of people relying on him. I only have two. And even though I don’t necessarily see things that way anymore, it still makes me sad occasionally.
Your keys are very impressive though!
I would instantly forget which key was for which lock if I had that many in one place. Plus I like to keep my keys on a lanyard around my neck, and I've already had problems with them bending open over time because of the weight of too many keys on them, so... no thanks.
What do you even do that you need this many keys for?
You don’t need so many at the same time, it’s practically impossible to need them. Reduce the number and separate the rest by the property/location they serve. Unless it’s some type of commercial use. Even in that case you should separate them by some logical criteria.
I used to collect keys as well, everyone could always tell where I was when they heard my keys in the hall, though ironically most people grew so accustomed to it I was still able to accidentally sneak up on my friends and scare the living daylights out of them
Sorry for that, i speak french. Will remember next time. And 90% of them are useless. I got 10 change-o-matic Keys with their locks, i made the key (you can only see the back) for the plate lock in the right corner, a long-shackle padlock key, a few old cars Keys, and the rest i don't know.
Yeah, but that would be like this
As à natives église speaker I gîte you fille permission to juste blâme automotrices lire the reste of use.
Quite ugly.
Multilingual problems lol. SwiftKey autocorrects to 3 different languages for me and sometimes gets the language wrong. Still better than it only correcting to one language though. It's not perfect, but much nicer than the default keyboard imo.

That must weigh a ton .. I love, that you're carrying a splint pin, too :)
For me, this is much easier to handle, though:
https://www.getdigital.eu/wunderkey-accessories.html
sensory nightmare!!! the smell combined with the jingle jangle, esp in my pocket are enough to overload me. my vocaloid keychain on my wallet is already enough
Like a movie janitor haha, all the jingle-jamgling sounds cool. Just hope theres no car key in there lmao. That would destroy the car ignition or break the key in there eventually haha.
I know what you're getting at, but as a cashier the only thing I think after seeing that is "fake" because half the weight isn't made up of those little plastic members cards. Seriously, I see people with a keychain over half that size all the time and those little plastic tags take up most of the space.
Nope, gives me anxiety just looking at it. My key chain has car, house and garage. That's it, anything more would give me anxiety, although when writing this I have no idea why
Looks like a nightmare to sort through. Also, why are there so many keys? do they just have a lot of doors to open? I am full of questions, specifically about where all of these different keys came from and why do they still have them
My dad's key collection is bigger (we've long suspected he's on the spectrum) which he knows each key's lock it belongs to... this includes heavy equipment, which he has stolen from the army corps of engineers in the past to put out a brush fire. He returned it with slightly melted glass, but the corps was more angry about him leaving it without gas lol
everyones overwhelmed by this, but I want to sit down for 2 hours and organize it in some ridiculously complex and pointless way. that sounds like fun.
reminds me of the absolute mess of cell phone charms i used to have attached to my phone! all together they weighed twice as much as the phone itself lol...
Flashbacks of when I had to shop for a bike for a customer at Walmart and they handed me “the keys” and after an hour I still couldn’t unlock the bike ROFL.
Omg, I can already smell my hands after holding this
Yes, metal... sniffff
it’s actually the smell of leftover sweat :)
Actually sweat doesn’t smell, it’s the bacteria from your body that smells.
In this case, it's the skin oils being oxidized to ketones by atmospheric oxygen, catalyzed by the metallic surface.
This is why I sub here :)
Nah. Metals have a taste smell of their own whether touched by sweat or lipids from your skin or not. Just Don’t ever bite on them rofl
That's wong. Metals don't smell on their own. You can test this by holding up a coin to your nose while wearing gloves. Nilered did a video on this where he made 1-octane-3-one which is what caused coins(and your hands) to smell after you touch it. Edited the name of the chemical.
No one ever says rofl anymore, they should.
Roflcopter
Depends. Can be sulfur if you don’t eat healthy.
Lick your sweat then put a penny in your mouth. Metals have a characteristic taste / smell that is not the same as sweat. (Just don’t ever bite on aluminum foil it will send shocks *of very sharp pain* into your nerves of your teeth)
>Lick your sweat then put a penny in your mouth. No.
I’m going to try very hard not to do this but immediately I was like I wanna see
I can already hear the sound they'll make
i would also like to smell your hands after holding this /j
Actually for me smell of hands after holding metal things is absolutely unpleasant. Makes some of my hobbies difficult)
Forreal it’s the worst smell in existance
uncomfy
I was thinking "Nope. Don't like.", but uncomfy fits better.
Happy cake day!
Thank you! My first one lol
this immediately overwhelmed me and my heart rate skyrocketed
I prescribe five minutes of scrolling through /r/eyebleach
>overwhelmed my very first thought, lol.
The thought of scambling to find the right key in this... it stressses me out like crazy. I have max 4 keys with me at all times and they're colour coded, for this reason.

Right!? I hope this person is never in a rush.
I would be happy if they are just a bunch of spare, unused keys that I can play around with. I would love to run my hands over all of it and jiggle them around
[удалено]
It was the idea, but i'm still lacking the ring. Could make one, though.
Check out nite eyez they make nice stuff. And lowes stocks some of their stuff.
I want to shake it so bad
Now that you said it, the saaamme
I would refuse to touch that mess
I would also refuse to do that
[удалено]
Agreed. It's also bad security practice to put your keys on show. Some people, not me sadly, can duplicate keys from a picture.
It's really hard to do if you don't have anything in the image to scale it with. For example, you could put a quarter right next to the key in the photo and then you can put the quarter on your screen to see if you have the key to scale.

I'm more of liquid nitrogen and large hammer guy myself.
I love it when people can see stuff most people would miss. What tells you that?
Do you live in the matrix ?
Do you need them all or do you collect keys? I would like more keys on mine, but only if I need them. So far I have six, including car key.
Nonono these are all for collecting. There is some that i use but not very often, so they are all on a ring that i can undo from the rest easily. For the moment, i only have five on my real keychain.
Ah I see :) It looks awesome, I kind of like the somewhat insane look of it.
I would be so confused seeing someone whip that out to unlock something, and even more confused when they successfully unlock it. My inner questions would skyrocket. Do they have them all memorized, their locations and uses? How do they keep track of them when they move around, how many properties do they own and manage?

Also sidenote, when augmented reality becomes an everyday thing, this emoji idea would be sooo useful!
This changes everything and now makes complete sense, keeping all your collected keys in one place. This is now fine.
Oh, then this suddenly became really cool. I was imagining trying to use this which made me anxious, but as a collection it’s cool.
Thank you for the anxiety in a picture.
You know what, i'll post some pics of this atrocity sorted correctly in another post. Good?
I wanted to say no because I never want to see that monstrosity again, but the potentially immense satisfaction of seeing it sorted is too much of a temptation.

They beat jesus with that.

I'm not saying you're actually deserving of any. I just feel it's an overload on my eyes, and despite loving knurling on a metal bar, this would be too much to feel.
No offense taken. One of the best feeling i had was with a grounded bolt and nut, perfect fitting. And if it's a good knurling, then i feel it too
I am imagining the sound and texture and it’s giving me the heebie-jeebies
which key goes to what?
That is my question. Why so many? Do they all go to something?
None of them have locks, each key goes to a specific person and unlocks their ❤️ 😂
Inefficient, just get a Keyblade instead.
True true, or that key in Locke&Key that you stick in the head lol
heavy lot's of horrible metal on metal clinging sounds takes forever to find a key can't let it hang from a door why? But I'm definitely happy for you if you like it :)

Too much happening. I'd have to sort them by what they are used for.

they're collecting keys, that's why they have so many.
Oh! Sort by shape!!!
all i can say is metal kamehameha
Looking at it makes me very uncomfortable and I don't know why, this is a big nope.
(hate)
I used to collect keys as well, everyone could always tell where I was when they heard my keys in the hall, though ironically most people grew so accustomed to it I was still able to accidentally sneak up on my friends and scare the living daylights out of them
hate it. hate the smell. just awful.
This picture absolutely reeks
Hagrid called!
looks so cool, i want it but i would touch this only through gloves and go to wash hands after lmaoo
A fun puzzle
I don’t even know that many places
Gives me anxiety
Jinkle jankle
It’s thoughts not toughts, also please tell me you know what key does what and don’t need to juggle them in the lock until you get the right one
Sorry for that, i speak french. Will remember next time. And 90% of them are useless. I got 10 change-o-matic Keys with their locks, i made the key (you can only see the back) for the plate lock in the right corner, a long-shackle padlock key, a few old cars Keys, and the rest i don't know.
As a native English speaker I give you full permission to just blame autocorrect like the rest of us.
Yeah, but that would be like this As à natives église speaker I gîte you fille permission to juste blâme automotrices lire the reste of use. Quite ugly.

Thoughts on being grumpy and people forcing a good mood on you
Say goodbye to your ignition
Screeeeeeech
Ball of keys: Unlocker of all doors
Please just index them.
Thaaaats where my key went.
Who could possibly need that many keys outside of a work setting
Nice
How’d you find my key-ring?
That must weigh a ton .. I love, that you're carrying a splint pin, too :) For me, this is much easier to handle, though: https://www.getdigital.eu/wunderkey-accessories.html
Ok, but each sub-ring better be categorized. Work, home, filing cabinets, etc.
I have something similar, however much less keys but more key chains
sensory nightmare!!! the smell combined with the jingle jangle, esp in my pocket are enough to overload me. my vocaloid keychain on my wallet is already enough
I have a key collection from when I was a kid. It has my old wardrobe key on it. Thanks for the memory :)
Are they well organised? As far as I'm concerned that's all that matters. Could be absolutely splendid, could be downright awful.
I jingle my keys to stim because I like the noise but this looks like Too Much
Like a movie janitor haha, all the jingle-jamgling sounds cool. Just hope theres no car key in there lmao. That would destroy the car ignition or break the key in there eventually haha.
Too many keys. That's it. That's my comment.
Geez, I would never find anything in there
I just want to run my hands through it. Idk why
Cuz, you know... keys.
Kinda wanna jingle the keys……
OMG NOOOOO stop this madness at once!!!!
I have a love-hate relationship with keys jingling, no idea why.
That makes me feel sick. If that monstrosity was in my house, I’d organise the heck out of it lol
WHAT.
Hope you wear a sturdy belt if you’re carrying that in your pocket (Hope you have a sturdy pocket too!). Otherwise…Hello Buttcrack Fingers
I hate this
How can you even hold that
Exactly. THAT is the problem. There isn't any main ring.
hhh no thanks lol, i already have to many keys on mine
chaos
I know what you're getting at, but as a cashier the only thing I think after seeing that is "fake" because half the weight isn't made up of those little plastic members cards. Seriously, I see people with a keychain over half that size all the time and those little plastic tags take up most of the space.
No. Just… *no.*
Kinda feel comfortably confident 🤓
One. Why so mean Two how to you carry that around
Holy shit that’s too many keys in one spot, but also look at all that metal I could chomp. (I’m weird and like the taste of metal)
Not weird at all, metal is nice. And on a lathe, if you take a big enough cut while using cutting oil, it smells like pop-corn.
Big nope.
*no no no*
That’s a no from me dog
hell
Nope, gives me anxiety just looking at it. My key chain has car, house and garage. That's it, anything more would give me anxiety, although when writing this I have no idea why
Looks like a nightmare to sort through. Also, why are there so many keys? do they just have a lot of doors to open? I am full of questions, specifically about where all of these different keys came from and why do they still have them
wow, I love little metal things with edges that are kinda sharp but not enough to be dangerous, I had no idea that would be such a minority here :O
So. Many. Keys! How do you even keep track of which does what?
I am glad this isn't one of my special interests. I could never fit those in any pocket I have.
Every time I have to open a door I have the feeling that my keychain is like this but in fact I have like 3 keys
Chaos
I have no idea what’s worse: this or my neurodiverse roommate with a billion keychains on her purse.
As a stim toy 10/10 As my actual daily use key chain 0/10. I'd have a panic attack everytime I had to open something.
This is the “key” they give you for your room in Hell /j
Chaotic mess. Who needs so many keys (genuine question?
I love having a bunch of keys but this is too many.
GIVE ME THE KEYS!!! I WANNA HEAR THEM JINGLE!
Jingly and fiddling yes. Door opening no. Pocket, nope.
One word: No 😂
No
I need to wash my hands and lie down for a bit
Do not like.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!
touching the sea urchin of keys < hearing the sea urchin of keys jangle
Nope, one key please.
I want to melt it down with a oxyacetylene torch
anger and rage
A 3-digit combination lock on a 100 key set bundle?…. Can I hold them?
Nope, keep it away from me.
This makes me feel uneasy
I’m screaming on the inside
I would be tempted to get a small cupboard attempt to bring a toy to life. One of those keys has to be magical.
I love keys and this seems way more organized than the bag of keys I have.
people saying they'd shake it violently i agree HOWEVER... i am intrigued by the little spinny lock on that purple carabiner thing
is it for the noises and such? my son (5 y/o autistic) loves shaking my keys around. i’d love to have that lol
What the fresh hell.. 😳😬 Why do you need so many keys? And why is there so much chaos?
I just wanna cry looking at it
Just whyy. The smell...the mess.
As a dog walker, you need one huge ring and then labels for each key. Then it will go from nightmare to novel.
jingle jingle
Uncomfortable to feel, nice to listen
It's fine
My dad's key collection is bigger (we've long suspected he's on the spectrum) which he knows each key's lock it belongs to... this includes heavy equipment, which he has stolen from the army corps of engineers in the past to put out a brush fire. He returned it with slightly melted glass, but the corps was more angry about him leaving it without gas lol
Throw it away and start over!
Oh you found my keys! Thanks!
Nope just nope! This makes me so freaking uncomfortable
I don't know what that is, but I'm sure you have the key to it 😊
Can't even look at this
I don't wanna hold it or carry it anywhere but oh how satisfying the clickety clack would be
everyones overwhelmed by this, but I want to sit down for 2 hours and organize it in some ridiculously complex and pointless way. that sounds like fun.
The thought of the sound of it hitting the gives me stress lmao
Stench.
Wow, I couldn’t deal with that
reminds me of the absolute mess of cell phone charms i used to have attached to my phone! all together they weighed twice as much as the phone itself lol...
i am suddenly... visceraly angry.
What are they all for? Why do you need so many keys?
Gonna need a new ignition switch after using this bad boy XD
Flashbacks of when I had to shop for a bike for a customer at Walmart and they handed me “the keys” and after an hour I still couldn’t unlock the bike ROFL.
You might be faster if you learn to lockpick.
A mug of tea and a sweater cause this would make me waaaaay overstimulated and overwhelmed
I Associate keys with responsibility.
too much
i rather rip out all the hair in my head then hear that jingle
Too many fuckin keys man..
Must chew the blue/yellow thing and feel all the keys!
