You're awful.
I do always instinctively go to shake with my left hand. People get so confused.

Naw, good for him to do things with both sides of his body for as long as possible.

Did you try giving stuff to him with his left hand? Maybe he switches there, too.

It might not be all bad, though. I mean there are some things I prefer to do with my left hand... need my right hand for the mouse, you see.

And yeah, he will keep it in his left if you give stuff to him there. Its actually kinda interesting as apparently lefties show their 'lefthandedness' earlier than right handers and he was particularly early apparently.
 
Just tie his left hand behind his body for the next 5 years. Problem solved. Jeez.

Stop pretending like there isn't a simple way to get your kid to be normal and not freaky. No more shame.

Dude, this is a competition to find out how many genetic traits came from me and the wife ok. Sh.
 
Who knew AusGAF was so anti left handed awesomeness? Outrageous. It's the best hand.

Also $200 is mega tempting for a WiiU. Mega tempting. Do UK console's play our games? No right?

Or take him to Thailand and frame him for graffiti. Problem takes care of itself.

Depends on when they'll start releasing them.
 
I'm right-handed, by the way.

When I was talking about things in the environment not being built for lefties, think of:

- Scissors
- Gamepads
- WASD/Mouse arrangements
- Locations of USB ports
- Touch-based UIs on phones
- Left to Right writing system (sort of)

It's like trying to navigate the all-important water cooler shibboleths of Cricket or AFL/Union/League fandom. It can be done, but it is neither comfortable or natural.

Might as well buy all those 3DS games I never plan to play I guess.

Yeah, just bought Luigi, Fire Emblem and Animal Crossing. Way too busy to play them any time soon, so long shipping time is fine with me. Nintendo games rarely drop in price anyways.

For the longest time I had WASD on my right hand and my left hand crossed under holding the mouse. Sadly I can no longer use that as an excuse as to why I'm so terrible at games :p

After you pointed it out this morning I noticed it a lot more today, especially at work. I have to switch hands or cross hands over for almost every activity. Tongs etc are always placed on the right, while boxes etc are always on the left.

Guess whos account just got validated.

Oh hey guys speaking of cheap games Rayman Origins 3DS $10 from Dick Smith Online.

That was awesome. I can't believe you got hit by a bus but got up because Street Fighter.

I really really really fucking love Street Fighter.

The worst week of my life was only survivable because I played Street Fighter Alpha 2 non stop for eighteen hours a day. Street Fighter has gotten me through some shit.

Great comic, thanks for sharing!

Thanks for reading!
