15. I have some expensive left-handed scissors that my mom gave me. |
|
But I never use them. I adapted so much when I was a kid to using right-handed implements that I feel more handicapped trying to use the ones developed for us southpaws.

that I don't want to bump elbows with anyone.

I cursed the notebooks in school because they were so hard to write in.
I didn't find a good desk until recently that could accomodate my lefty ways.

On EDIT: Hey Historic NY. My sister got me a Tshirt that said "Only Left handed people are in their right minds".

25. My dear late mother raised holy hell with the teacher who tried |
|
to get me to switch handedness. I was the only lefty in the family but was never made to feel "wrong" about it. Bless you, Mom! :loveya:

28. Being left sometimes......can screw everything up........ |
|
I broke my left leg in Jan and just got a walking cast, I for the life of me have a hell of a time trying to walk right left right left. Stairs just even make it worse. I walk like the military left right. I used to be one of only two lefty's on my job used to drive our range instructor nuts when we got new semi-auto handguns.

I predominantly write left handed. However, some well meaning parent trying to switch handedness as a toddler. As a result I have some idiosyncrasies, such as I can't use a left handed pair of scissors, I iron by switching hands unconsciously, and I have to spend a few minutes with a new implement using each hand until I figure out which hand I should use....
I'd say now predominantly right handed but can only write left handed.
