Did I Have a Twin?

I came across a scientific theory that lefties had a twin in the womb that did not survive or “vanished.”

I thought of this scene from The Office:

A Little Scottish Humor

A Scottish saying to describe an unlucky person is: “He must have been baptized by a left-handed priest.”

I find this saying funny because of my Scottish heritage.  But I have never heard this from either one of my grandparents on my dad’s side of the family, and their parents came from Scotland.

The only stories I heard were from my grandma about how her father hated the royal family.  Everyone outside of Scotland seems to love them though.

Explain Please

Math wasn't my strongest subject in school.  So when I came across this fact, I wondered how it was possible?

Mothers over the age of 40 are 128% more likely to have a left-handed baby than mothers in their 20s.

I don’t understand how the percentage can be over 100%.  Does this mean that all babies born to mothers over 40 are left-handed or what? 

I don’t know.

Smurder Evidence

This is the evidence that smurdering has occurred.  The quality of the picture is not very good, but you may be able to seen some faint markings.

Smurder (Not a Smurf Murder)

To Smurder (v.):

To smudge the ink on an in-class essay.  It is a very messy outcome that usually results from being rushed to finish a two-page essay in a 10-minute time period.

The Simpsons are Left-Handed

I never realized this, and I’m not sure how many others have either, but Ned Flanders is not the only left-handed character on “The Simpsons.”  Many of the show’s other recurring characters are also lefties, including Bart, Moe, and Mr. Burns.

Some people believe this unusually large number of left-handed cartoons is due to creator Matt Groening being left-handed.

Unfortunately, Homer is not left-handed.  So this picture doesn’t make much sense.

 

Info came from Simpsons wiki page.

Left Hander's Mouse

Some companies make left-handed computer mice and keyboards.  These are mostly for lefty computer gamers.  The left-handed mice are only convenient for those that prefer the left and right click buttons, while the number pad on the keyboard is on the left side instead of the right.

I have a laptop and do not have any trouble using the touchpad mouse with my left hand.  But for those that are frustrated with the right-handed computer keyboards and mice, here’s the solution.
