Actually, I guess I lift my beer with my right.. so, just driving then. Changing gear, I do that with my left, fiddle with the radio etc. Everything worth a damn is done with my right

Lefty pride! I can use my right hand for anything if I need to, though, so I guess that makes me ambidextrous?

Still and all, 250 years is a long lifespan for a right hand. I guess lifting beers is the perfect amount of strain for maximum handage. Or whatever. Oh, and I was talking about your right hand in the first place. Also, this is hella stupid, gotta go.

You backwards Brits! I can't IMAGINE shifting left handed.

Does anyone have a clue as to why Brits drive on the wrong side of the road? I mean, does "driving left" pre-date cars??? WHO decided that "we'll build THESE cars, with the steering wheel on the opposite side"?
WTF?

Well, when you drive on the wrong side of the road, you're bound to be defensive!

OK. The Romans drove their carts on the left And so did you lot over there You only switched to the right to be more like the French after we uhh.. abandoned you after that little spat we had... Then everyone else switched to the right to be more like you. We decided we were right in the first place, and stuck to our guns

We invented cars *cough* so we're right. In fact, we invented everything. Including your country

I can't imagine changing gears with the right hand. you engage the clutch with the left while changing gears with the right and accelerate with the right. the sides of my brain get confused thinking about it. for us gears and clutch are all left and in motion together, it makes more sense to my brain. Also most people are right handed so having the main driving hand being the left one is like them making baseball gloves for the right hand and leaving the left to do the throwing. itjust makes more sense in my head for the drivers seat to be on the right.

I'm a lefty though and got confused when I first went to school and tried to do it exactly like the teacher when she showed us how to write so I tried to do it that way.
