We all like to feel comfortable in our minority ghettos, well today I’m breaking out of mine and joining in the worldwide celebration of Left Handers Day.
Yes, I’m left handed and I’m proud. I could quote all sorts of exciting statistics about being left handed, but I’m sure you’re not interested in the slightest.
Whats important is that its our day, and like the rabid Northerners last week we’ve got a whole twenty four hours to pat ourselves on the back and tell ourselves how great we are.
<update> Read all about this greatest of days in the Grauniad. Although after perusing the article I can’t help but feel a little depressed. Its time to fight back against oppression and negativity, being a lefty is great. More background reading can be found here. </update>
Long live the lefties.
Left is right.
