First we had “Attention all CR Lefties”. Then “Attention all CR Rightys”. And not ignoring “CR is out of hand”. So what should I do?
Well I thought I may aswell throw my hat (black or otherwise) into the ring, especially if I can be doing other things with my other hand at the same time!
Since I was a young child I’ve known that I’m ambidextros! My teachers all told me that on the one hand I’m a cute boy, but on the other hand I’m a bit cheeky!!
And that’s where it ends. Right there. Cos I’m really a righty. That’s right. I was just having a right good time, pretending to be otherwise. You’re either right or you’re not, right? There are no other options. Am I right? Yes I’m right. And I’d rather be right and only right than any other option. Otherwise you will get left behind. Left right behind. Have I left myself clear? Right.
Where had we left off? Oh right. Dont be jealous if you are not ambidextrous! Some people are. A famous boxer wishes he was. He is quoted as saying “Oh man, I’d give my right arm to be ambidextros!”
Ambidextrous is double as good. Right?
LOL (really). gr8 humor.
pretty shticky. 🙂
I thought ambidextroses meant people who like all kinds of sugar.
Never mind. I don’t belong.
I had a Rebbe who is one of the gedolei hador, and he was completely ambidextrous. He would often write a sentence on the board with one hand, and when he got to the middle of the board, he would switch hands and finish the other half.
He has written numerous sefarim on shas and chiddushei Torah.
I believe I later had a math professor who was similar, and also a complete genius. I concluded that some very bright people are ambidextrous.
As a lefty, I learned very young that often one must accomodate to a right handed world. My first challenge was scissors, and then one piece chair/desks. In my work, I found that there were hammer blows that would work only one way, and once having to hand cut thirty pipes, I learned to saw with the right hand. Of my children, four out of six are left handed, one was ambi as a first grader, my oldest began to put tefillin on both ways, and the youngest was undecided until a therapist made her a righty, but she remains very right brained and artistic. We theorize that my FIL’s family who were all lost in the shoah, must have had a strong left gene pool.
being ambidextrouse makes u special, being special makes u unique, being unique makes u AMAZING!!! EL OH EL!!
Thank you Pashuteh Yid – until you told us that one of the Gedolei Hador was ambidextrous, I did not know if it was Torahdig for a frum person to be that way. Turns out, Eilu vEilu divrei Eloykiim Chayim. So it is muttar to be a lefty because the Steipler was, it is muttar to be a rightie because R’ Moshe was, and now we know that it is even muttar to be ambidextrous. Chasdei Hashem.
someone i know is “both” handed and is very smart… I agree that there must b something to it! As much as i try i am only a righty(sigh)
dont feel bad that ur a righty!!! im alsoo a righty and im proud of it! u shud also be proud! :):)
Shticky lol rotf. Keep it up (especially as you have 2 hands to type with!)
Finally. A thread just for me. Thank you, Shticky!
Truthfully, I wrote with my left hand until a (smart) teacher said, “Your penmanship is awful; you might as well write with your right hand.”
So I became ambidextrous.
Hysterical thread 😉
Thanks for authoring & reviving, Shtickster.
Lefty’s Rock! Boy I wish I was a lefty.
“Does anyone else have an unusual capability or talent?”
I can talk and confuse people at the same time.
