I haven't gotten very far on my board because certain people in my household keep carelessly piling stuff on it and smudging what I've done. ![]() |

Weird, I have also read "normal minus 7" as the most recent lifespan estimate for MS sufferers ![]() I tend to hate those sort of stats for their inherent smugness. Said healthy person could pity others for their short lifespan and wander outside only to be flattened by a truck. |

Kitsa | I do not own a ouija board, but weirdly enough I did try the little plastic prop from the middle of a pizza box once. It dragged through my work. | |

Tadao | Take the piece from your ouija board and rest your hand on that. | |

I've been trying to teach myself to write with my left hand for about the past 20 years or so. It's not real neat, but it's legible. My daughter is a lefty. And, I suspect my youngest too, though it's still too early to tell for sure. |

Kitsa | Most of the time when I try to balance or do something akin to that, all I end up with is a wobbly sketch and one hell of a case of writer's cramp. | |

Shrubfest | We're also statistically more likely to die 7 years before right-handers. | |

MLE | I've tried that, being a righty, and that's incredibly uncomfortable. Also, it has no stabilization, and my hand shakes without that. | |

Sacks | Try resting the wrist of your left hand on your left hand so it hovers over the image. | |

Big McLargehuge | You have to be left handed to become the Pope and lefties are proven to be less susceptible to bone loss on extended space missions. Not to mention that left handed scientists are smarter. | |

Yeah, I've seen that in the real world. ![]() |

True. And that would be bad. I don't know how well my chopstick handling would be viewed by a pro, so good thing I don't do it around others. Too much "KAWAIIIIIIIIII WATCH ME USE HASHI DESU NE" shit going on nowadays. These days I use my chopsticks to stir up powdered formula in bottles. They work great for that, by the way. I used to really suck at using left-handed scissors, but I've improved recently. |

In a way, being left handed is harder on a person. Everything is made for right handed people, but not everything is available in left handed form. All the way from where the knbs are on the washer to which door we pull open to enter a building. I hold my chopsticks wrong, try getting way with that one. ![]() |

Kitsa | Every teacher I've ever had tells me I hold my pens and pencils wrong. I tried doing it the "correct" way but couldn't stand it. Then again, I type "wrong" and many teachers told me that being left-handed was wrong altogether, so fuck 'em. | |

I'd use my little finger as a rest, too. As a kid I always had paint/pen/pencil coated hands, but I've not had this problem for years now, and I've just realized I have no idea why... Unhelpful, I know. |

I would think it'd be easy to draw from right to left. ![]() And when I write with my pens, I still end up with ink all up my arm for some reason. Don't feel bad. |

I think right handed people have the same problems. You have to train yourself to not rest your hand on the board. Sometimes I'll rest my pinky off the the drawing if I need stability. Also, your daughter is a secret Canadian. That looks like a red maple leaf. |

Wow, that's good. Yeah, I have the same problem with stains all up my hand. Uh, ink and pencil stains I mean. |
