Dude having one hand sucks

???
I never said I have one hand.

In Italian, the word for left is "asinistra". Which is where English "sinister" comes from. Sinister meaning evil, hostile, malicious.

But yeah, I hate how culture looks at left hands.
Jesus is at God's RIGHT hand.
You use your RIGHT hand to eat.
You use your RIGHT hand to write.
You use your RIGHT hand to give people stuff.
You use your RIGHT hand to shake people's hand.
...
You use your left hand to wipe shit off your butt.

And that is why I became a hipster.

I'm right-handed, but I eat with a fork and knife the "wrong" way (according to my mother...)

Oh great, now I feel really bad.
How I wish the world on the other side of the mirror was real, then I wpuld go there and be normal.
And don't worry about me not being able to read backwards writing, I'm very good at that.

Why? Did I say something?

No, it was a response to this:

That's just because most people are right-handed, so they couldn't do much with their left hands. Hence, in most languages, right and left are synonyms to good and bad, respectively. In English, for example, a "right" thing is (obviously) something that is morally good. In Polish, if something is "left" then it is likely to break, weird, useless, fake, and possibly even stolen.

11% of people are left handed.
That's a fairly big minority.
It's akin to racism.

"Prawy" is in Poland word for honest/honorable man.

One of my guinea pigs died today.
And the cold I have for the past few days has reached its' peak.
So now I feel physically miserable.
