I saw so many people go into that thread thinking that it was about left handed people that I decided to write one for us, the real lefties.

I'm thrilled to be left-handed all the time except when you have to use devices specifically designed for right-handers (inconsiderate pricks).

Did you know that Julius Caesar was a lefty? So... I guess the real question would be: Do you enjoy being a lefty?

    Hahaha...I'm lefty at fine motor skills, writing, eating, etc., and right at gross motor movement, kicking, throwing, etc. It was awesome in middle school when i could simulataneously take notes and throw spit wads withought getting caught.

    I dig being a lefty. I throw a natural curve that's pretty hard to hit.

    Same here. Except I'm horribly uncoordinated so the writing spitball thing is not in my repertoire. :)

    I can still remember in school having to write essays with a pencil. When I was done the top side of my middle, fore and pinky fingers were practically black. :mad:

    I like being a lefty. I hated the ink/pencil staind hand and I could always here my mom yelling out, "come on, wrong arm," when I was a kid playing baseball, but other then that it was fine.
    Funny facts, there is a higher percentage of pro athletes, presidents and criminals that are left handed then in the general population.

    I like being a lefty. My DH is a lefty too. A dinner parties, we can dine side-by-side without elbowing each other.

    I found it pretty easy to learn piano chords in my left hand too.
    The kids of today should defend themselves against the Seventies Nineties.

    You have to do it sorta diagonally... or level your body so that your left hand goes straight to the knob, and when you open the door and try to get in, you'll most likely hit the edge of the wall.

    It hurts like a motherfucker. I know.
