Default I spilled lots of water on my laptop

Got back into my room after a rough night and I was drinking lots of water. I must not have noticed that I spilled a TON of water directly on my keyboard. I closed my laptop, which was still on, and went to sleep. Woke up in the morning, opened it up, noticed there was a huge puddle of water on the keyboard still and it was no longer on. (Beat) I turned it upside down and water literally came pouring out. [censored]. Used a blow dryer to clear all the excess water, took out battery and let it sit for 24 hours.

Next day I put the battery back in, a light starts flashing, and it starts making awful clicking noises. Ah. Take battery back out and let it sit for a few more hours. Put battery back in, still makes clicking noises but I decide I might as well try to boot it up. After a few presses, it turns on and boots up completely normally. Has been working 99% perfectly since. (Brag)

Who thinks it will continue working with no after effects? Who thinks it will crap out in the near future? (Variance)

Did you drink the water? How did the water taste?

I think it will probably set you on fire.

I real balla would have spilled Courvoisier on it instead or at least thrown it away after spilling the water.

Also- what the hell? Where was your butler during all of this?

It's an interesting idea, but I don't think it will help the performance of your laptop.
