Left Handed people in here!

Power tools can be a pain too.

For example, my circular saw blows the sawdust into my face if I use it left-handed :(

Most semi-auto rifles eject the shell to the right*, smack into your face. :(
(I've never had this issue, but I imagine it would be most annoying).

For me:
Writing: Left
Throwing: Right
Scissors: Left
Eating: Fork in Left, Knife in Right
Kicking: Left
Punching: Right
Shooting (Quasar and those arcade games): Left
Mouse: Left (ambidextrous mouse obv), can use Right though (used to prefer to use Right when at work, so I wouldn't get used to having a crappy mouse in my Left hand).
Keyboard when gaming: WASD, I just move the keyboard to the right side of my desk so my right hand can get to WASD.


*From what I've seen in games.
 
I've heard they are opening a shop for people like you!

I'm left handed for almost everything except brushing my teeth, scissors and using a computer mouse. There was never any point getting used to a left handed mouse as they are so uncommon, I almost can't use a left-handed mouse now.
 
Haha! My left-handed mouse configuration confuses all inferior righties who try to use my computer.

Try as they might, they can't get their feeble little right-handed brains around it... brows all furrowed in a futile effort to work it out. Mwuhaha.

I'm left-eared and left-footed as well. Look in awe on my leftie-ness ye mighty and despair!
 
Do right handers in countries that have a language that writes right to left have the same problem as left handers writing left to right?

rofl lunatic on the loose! Cracking post :D

I'm a fellow cack-hander and do most things with my left hand/side but mouse, scissors, I use with my right. Just got used to it from school and young age tbh.
 
I can do other stuff with my right hand, but I have to write with my left. It is odd really, I bowl with my right, but can't with my left, I have always used a computer mouse with my right hand, but I eat with my left hand. Oh I brush my teeth with my left also.

For power I am right handed, for precision I am left.
Snooker / pool - left
writing - left
throwing - right
tennis - right

Same, except I shoot pool (and just shoot) right-handed. That may be down to whether your left or right eye is dominant (it is for true shooting), which is loosely, but not completely, related to your dominant hand. I believe it is called something like "shared dominance": essentially the side of your brain most related to the activity concerned gets control, rather than one just dominating. The weirdest one with me is trying to draw with a mouse: I draw LH, but use a mouse RH, so as a result I can't draw with a mouse with either hand.

I'm completely right-handed but have to use left-handed fishing reels, for some bizarre reason I just cannot use a right-handed fishing reel or one that is set-up for right-hand use, even fly fishing reels where you don't really use the reel at all has to be set up for left-hand use or I can't wind in when I need to move, weird eh?
