hmmm, maybe we have discovered a strange forum phenomina!!

 

left handed = o.0

right handed = 0.o

 

 

*twilight zone music starts to play*

 

very strange!! :eek:

LOL

 

So you're right-handed, then? :D

 

I wonder what other peculiar phenomena we'd discover if we examined out behaviour more closely :eyeraise: ...This is starting to turn into a psychology lesson :D

 

 

*starts analysing Clem's many oddities in-depth* :evanpiel:

^ I think not :p :p :D

 

 

(Lefty Factoids from this site)

 

[begin copy/paste]

 

About 30 million Americans are left-handed!

Blonds are twice as likely to be left-handed, nobody knows why.

Leftys are more likely to suffer from juvenile diabetes, insomnia, migraines, ulcers, phobias, alcoholism and manic depression and three times as likely to commit suicide as rightys. Aren't we lucky?

While leftys make up only about 10% of the general population, between 15 and 30% of all patients in mental institutions are left-handed.

On the other hand, they account for almost 20% of Mensa's membership.

August 13th is International Lefthanders Day, it also happens to be the birthdate of Dean Campbell, the guy who founded International Lefthanders Day, coinicidence, I think not. (He maintains that the 13th was chosen to "make fun of all the superstitions surrounding left-handedness" yeah, we believe you Dean)

The term "leftist," meaning radical, dates back to the French Revolution, during which the presiding officer of the French Assembly sat with moderates in front of him, conservatives on his right, and radical revolutionaries on his left.

A study conducted at the University of Wisconsin found that 7 out of 10 women preferred to be caressed and cuddled with their partner's left hand. Too much free time in Wisconsin.

70% of the Punjab tribe in Fiji prefer their left hand. In fact many aboriginal tribes, from the Americas to Africa to Australia, have a consistantly higher percentage of lefties.

 

 

"Any group that includes Charlemagne, Rock Hudson, Paul McCartney, Leonardo da Vinci, Benjamin Franklin, Jack the Ripper, and the Boston Strangler must be select, if not elite." - James De Kay

 

 

Nearly every left-handed page/book/article I've ever seen includes a list of famous leftys, why should mine be any different:

 

Both Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin are leftys, in fact nearly one fourth of the Apollo astronauts were leftys.

4 out of the 5 people who designed the Macintosh computer are left-handed.

Alexander the Great, Napoleon (and Josephine), Julius Caesar, Charlemagne, Chuchill, Queen Victoria, Joan of Arc, and Ghandi were leftys.

Samual Adams: Brewer, Patriot, Lefty.

Lefty presidents include: James Garfield, Herbert Hoover, Harry Truman, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, George Bush, and Bill Clinton, as well as also rans Ross Perot, Bob Dole, and Bill Bradley.

Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Picasso painted with their left-hand, as did Toulouse-Lautrec, Rubens, Klee, Escher, and Durer.

The British Royal Family is crawling with leftys: the Queen, the Queen Mum, Prince Charles and Prince William are all southpaws, as were Edward III, George II, George IV, George VI, Louis XVI, and Queen Victoria (please fill in your own joke about inbreeding in Royal families).

Every member of the Simpsons family has been left-handed in at least one episode (For a breakdown of who and when, click here).

It's not easy bein' green, or left-handed, as Kermit the Frog (and his alter ego Jim Henson) can tell you.

Great literature can flow from one's left hand, as proven by the likes of Hans Christian Anderson, Peter Benchley, Lewis Carroll, and H.G. Wells.

I may not have any musical talent, but apparently I can't blame that one on my handedness: 50% of the Beatles were left-handed (Paul and Ringo), as are a full 2/3rds of Hanson (Taylor and Zac), not to mension: Sting, Paul Simon, Bob Dylan, David Bowie, Jimi Hendrix, George Micheal, Seal, Annie Lennox, Kurt Cobain, Greg Allman, Micheal Stipe, Glen Frey, and Phil Collins.

 

 

There is no consensus in the scientific community about the causes of left-handedness, but here are some theories that we have abandoned:

 

Left-handedness is a willful, neurotic choice made by obstinate and antisocial individuals.

All people are born right-handed. Some become left-handed because they are mentally or physically deficient and cannot properly learn right-handed skills.

Since the heart lies on the left side of the chest (sort of), early warriors sought to protect it by carrying their shields in their left hand and weapon in their right, giving right handed warriors a distinct advantage.

One of my personal favorites, left-handedness is the result of bad toilet training, in which the child becomes confused over which hand should be used for toilet hygiene and which should be used for other tasks.

And dont ever say sanity is a cure for anything!

*shudder*

Although marajana can keep people from going blind, but it can kill you.

 

So... small doses of sanity will give you enough common sense *Shudder* too stay away from Redwing's animeish side ;)

But too much can leave you... I don't want to talk about it.

 

Sanity Market

Let's stop the Mental Hospital's executives! They make money from making people sane! :D
