Originally posted by the dancer of spazDitto on hitting in softball, though I'm rather dominant in the right-handed route. Ditto ALSO on the sensitivity to seeing how other people write. I'm the only one in my family who ISN'T right-handed.
(And I have to say that, when I got play laser tag, I too can switch positions. )
And LADY! Ahem... Why am I feeling so ABANDONED lately.
You're never alone.
And with softball, I did really well as a righty there too...sometimes better than with my left...

Bad teacher! That was so dumb! Luckily, I escaped that kind of "discrimination."
Me too -- left-handed. Things that require one hand I do left-handed like writing, racket sports, bowling, eating and things that are two-handed I do right-handed like batting, swinging a golf club.
My mom was left-handed and the nuns were trying to get her to write right-handed but my grandma told the nuns her daughter was going to write left-handed if that is what she wanted to do, and so my mom remained left-handed. Way to go, grandma!
And to stay on topic, Sam would be proud.

you guys think your view is weird, you should see how it looks to a mod!1
i got all this weird stuff
ahem, anyway
i can join the ranks of 'you need to pick a hand'
when i was learning to write, i could or tried to write with both hands, but the teacher said 'you need to pick one' and i' picked my right hand since i could write better wtih that one
does it mean i was originaly left handed? i dunno. right now i can't domuch special with it, but i have to wonder how things woulda been had i been allowed to write with either

I've always been right-handed. I just don't hold my pencil correctly. They tried to teach me in 2nd grade, but it just felt uncomfortable.sigpic

Originally posted by ChopinGalOkay, Samandans, just to know the poet's tortured mind ... there is a line in The Dream (see 17028, page 852) that reads "And I'm stripped of my power, a citizen without borders" ... I debated between that or writing "I'm feeling displaced, a citizen without borders" ... which is the better fit for Sam?
The Muse will not stop haunting me so I thought I'd put her on a shelf while I took a vote!
Kat liked the second and I've compromised and kept the meaning of the line somewhere in the middle. I do feel strongly about this whole issue and guess it's why I wrote the poem in the first place.

Originally posted by LadyJeepI'm left-handed and I wear my watch on my left. Could it be that I never realized tht I have a problem?
Maybe someone going to GABIT can ask Amanda if she's right/left/or ambi... and we've noticed her watch and weapon switching hands...

That screenshot from Hathor is interesting (though I did get my hopes up when you said Sam, Janet and Tub scene!!! ), being that holding a M4 like that for a left hander would definitely be awkard. The shells would be ejected straight across your face, and the charging handle might be in an awkard spot too. While it is possible to swap them around, it doesn't happen on the fly
But you're right, it does make sense if she's standing at a corner and needs to shoot around without exposing her body. The P-90 is great in that regard, because it's completely ambidextrous. I notice she did the same thing in Avatar
And another thing - its proven (or at least has significant evidence to back it up) that people who can use both hands equally as good, are able to work their brains more effectively. Perhaps that could explain why Sam seems to have a natural inuition for certain things?

But, hey, lefties are cool. My sister is left handed, and as long as she sits on my left, we're alright.

And I'm posting in the QR box, with it's improved options; don't have to Go Advanced to change fonts, color, etc. There's even a spell check! I like that. Guess getting used to the changes will come.
Just sayin'.
And cooler: Edit is on auto-edit, without changing screens! I'm almost a New Format Fan! Now, if only I could get smilies in QR...Just sayin'.MISSION: STARGATE REWATCH 2011-2012ENGAGEDDONE!
