I have had an unfortunate turn of events. Anyone have any idea's how I can get my laptops keys to stop being sticky? I spilled some alcohol on it when i was drunk... apparently drinks and computers don't mix... sigh.

if it was so much dirt, hand cleansing gels will help. Hand Sanitizers for the key board

maybe you can do a little experiment, try re enacting the spill over your hands and clean it with the hand sanitizers, ( the one that dries instantly) if this works on to your hands i will work just fine with the keys, why i choose hand sanitizer is that it dries almost by itself.

In my opinion , if it's a really cheap keyboard, I would get a new one after i've used it for a long time .
I usually use a vacuum cleaner to clean in between keyboard buttons , you can try it too .

the only problem is, is that its connected to the whole computer.... its a laptop... so I really can't just replace the keyboard though at this point in time I wish I could =[

You will need to remove the keys and clean underneath, which can be a very tricky job with a laptop. You coulf try simply rubbing quite firmly with wipes, but I really doubt if this is likely to remove all the sticky residue dep inside the gaps.
