For one, stop watching porn.

Get a flathead screwdriver and just pop it out, then blow on it really hard.

Don't use water.
If you need a liquid use rubbing alcohol on a q-tip so it will evaporate fast.

hmm, "blowing on the d"

I would pop the key off then use rubbing alcohol on a q-tip.

I too would use rubbing alcohol on a q-tip, but honestly, if it isn't a fancy keyboard I would just get a new one. =] (I work at a computer store) You can get a functional keyboard for like 5 bucks.
