DC Tom Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 "We can't understand why everyone's always picking on us and calling us ignorant hicks." -- Okies "Sinister" is Latin, and took on the meaning of "unlucky" or "evil" in the early Christian era. Until then, it simply meant..."left." So left-handed people are literally sinister. You ignorant hick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 My father is left handed. Had a nun in 3rd grade who forced all the left handed kids to sit on the left side of the classroom, so that their elbows would hit the wall, and it would discourage them from doing so. My older sister is left handed. We were an extended family growing up... My grandfather and uncle living w/us, my parents, and us four children... So when all 8 of us ate dinner @ the table we stuck my sister on the end of the table to the left so she wouldn't bump elbows with the rest of the us righties. LoL... Nowadays, she'd probably lawyer up and take us all to court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Cugala Fran & Ollie are there for you. Cugs will you represent me? If not, I could always turn to BringBackFergy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flutie Flakes Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I write, eat and shoot a gun left handed....everything else is righty. Damn 3 ring binders and spiral notebooks were tough to use back in school, not to mention that most of the fold down desks were designed for students that were right handed.

Jon in Pasadena Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) "Sinister" is Latin, and took on the meaning of "unlucky" or "evil" in the early Christian era. Until then, it simply meant..."left." So left-handed people are literally sinister. You ignorant hick. I knew the etymology of "sinister". Duh. Fortunately many of the 50 states are no longer living in the early Christian era, hence we no longer call children evil based on their handedness. Children are evil based on their other behaviors. You idiot. (PS, I am dexterous.) Edited September 23, 2015 by Jon in Pasadena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cugalabanza Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Cugs will you represent me? If not, I could always turn to BringBackFergy.... Sure thing. I think our best bet is to go with an insanity plea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't that about the same time that all the women were working in the munitions plant for the war effort? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
