Left or Right?
 
I'm just curious - are you left-handed, right-handed, or ambidextrous?
I am right-handed.

I bet PA looked at this thread and got all excited, then found himself all depressed when he realised that it doesn't give him an opportunity to moan about the political left.

I'm mainly right handed and partially ambidextrous. As in, I have more dexterity in my left hand than your standard right handed person, but the same amount of dexterity in my dominant hand.

Right handed. Though I am a left handed hockey player.

Hobo 07-22-2005 12:48 AM

Right handed.

Dark Oddworld 07-22-2005 01:01 AM

Right handed. Can't do shit with my left.

Gretin 07-22-2005 01:22 AM

I'm right-handed, but my left hand's fingers are a bit more flexible than my right hand due to playing the guitar. And for some reason my left hand seems to be more susceptible to cramp than my right...

Probably due to the stretch of inversion bar chords. ;)

I'm right handed. I do everything righthanded.

Silversnow 07-22-2005 03:45 AM

I think I'm ambidextrious. I can only write and draw with my left hand, but I do everything else with the right. If I tried doing other stuff with my left, I'd probably screw up. And even if I'm wrong, I've already voted. Hah.

big bro boogie 07-22-2005 03:53 AM

I'm right handed. Yet I wish to be ambidextrious, cuz I can't even cut my right fingernails properly.:eek: I need to file them...

Rich 07-22-2005 04:17 AM

Right handed, but like other folks have said, instrument playing helps your left hand become more useful.

Godlesswanderer 07-22-2005 04:46 AM

Right handed. I can't think of anything that I can do with my left hand.

Y'know... I don't think I've ever cut my fingernails, I just bite them down to a reasonable level. I seriously can't remember cutting my nails in living memory. :p

I'm right handed, When I try to write with my left, the line just goes right off the paper.

ANN NEELY 07-22-2005 06:57 AM

I mostly write with my right hand, but I am ambidextrous.

T-nex 07-22-2005 08:08 AM

right-handed... But i can write my name with my left hand.... It just looks a bit... odd... :-S

MojoMan220 07-22-2005 02:35 PM

I'm a righty. What more could I possibly contribute? Let's put more thought into these threads people!

Oddish 07-22-2005 02:57 PM

Right Handed. Yeah.

Absolute ditto. :x

I'd actually rather be left-handed (fan issue because Link is, shush) but then I heard about the whole school-desk issue... I write and draw with my right, but I do everything else like a left-handed person.

Seargentbig 07-22-2005 06:12 PM

I find it interesting that while two people have voted ambidextrous, none have commited to being lefties.

Coolmanbizkit 07-23-2005 02:56 PM

Im left handed, Looks like the only pure left handed thats voted :p But i use my right hand for things like using scissors, using a bat. Thats about it really :p

Esus 07-23-2005 04:16 PM

Right handed.

Phew, looks like I've exhausted the discussion capabilities of this thread.

AquaticAmbi 07-23-2005 06:21 PM

Right-handed, meaning chances are my brain's left hemisphere is dominant. However, from all the psychological tests I've taken and just from knowing my own interests (science but art and music too) and such, I'm quite positive my hemishperes are fairly equal.

Here, for those that don't know (and for your discussiony needs, Esus) is a brief explanation of the dominanty stuffs I'm talking about: http://www.pierce.ctc.edu/tlink/gene...s_js_hand.html

And here's something I found that gives a few theories about why some people are left-handed. http://psychology.hypnoticworld.com/...handedness.php

Oh yeah I hate that... the way you've got to reach round the WRONG way to do chords of any kind. That's why I like e minor... just a couple fingers, right up the end of the neck. You get a nice, meaty powerchord off it too, good way to check that everything is in tune.

Screws with your wrist after a while too, cause you've got to keep it in an unrelaxed twisted-round position for ages.

Ummm.... you're talking about guitars, right? ;)

Anyway, I'm right-handed, just like Jesus was, which is just one more clue that I am, in fact, an incarnation of the Messiah.

:

Gay people may be up to 39% as likely to be left-handed as straight people
Oh yes :confused:

As for the hemisphere, I think my brain is equal. So, yes.

I am Right-handed. The end.

Right hand here. Tried to write with the left - no luck.

If Kimon is the Messiah then may god help us all :p
