Quick informal survey: How many keys are on your keychain? And of those, how many have you used in the past seven days? Be honest - you don’t have to use your real name (as if anyone here does anyway…). If you’re reading this, you’re obliged to participate. I know where you sleep, Alexandr.
I’ll go first. To the comments!
UPDATE: Here’s some infoporn on the results so far. Last update 2/7, 5:30PM EST

Ok.
But every law can be used in many ways)))
For example I can be not Russian boy. Maybe I’m girl))
Or for example you wouldn’t know who I am.
Just use your imagination. As a soldier I know everything about being The Cleverest)))

One key. That’s when you know you’ve made it. If you consider having an electronic garage door “making it.”
Which I do.
02.07.08 at 2:47 pm
7 keys, 2 used every day. 1 not used in weeks, 3 not used in years (old door knobs), 1 never used.
02.07.08 at 2:56 pm
You, my friend, are an absolute legend! For the last couple of weeks, I have been looking for a lost locker key, and I have just found it! Yes, on my very own keychain, and for that I feel shamefully dumb, but nevertheless, you are a legend! To answer your question, 4 in total, 2 used in the last week. (although the locker key will be used tomorrow, and the 4th is being removed as I type!)

It depends on which key chain, office key chain has 7 keys of which I only use one (I am always late and the office is already open), my house keychain has 3, of which I only use 1, and my car key chain only has 1 used daily. (duh). I keep them separate because I’m prone to missplacing keys!
