This has nothing to do with being right or left handed, just humor and stupidity on my part. Renz stated that you see people put their hand through glass without sustaining injuries, well you may have seen the thieves that walk up to a car window and put a tool on it and it shatters? Well, they use an automatic center punch to do it. Well anyway I had one and decided to try it on a jar. I thought, wait, I'll cut my right hand to pieces so i wrapped my hand in a towel before I did it. Cut the fuck out of my left hand holding the jar!:tsktsk: I'm sure it had nothing to do with all the empty beers around. It worked though. Hey, maybe someone could make a tool like that for thief. Some mission where there isn't a sword or something! Have to break and enter somewhere. Ok stupid idea. I'll go back to work now.:D

I'm not even going to ask why or how Renz; just glad you're on the mend. Hope things continue to improve for you as well, Goblin.

Ok it's not as bad as when my grandmother was in school and had her left hand tied behind her back to force her to write right-handed, but that is still wrong :(
Agreed; you'd think in this day & age teachers would be a little more enlightened. The little six year old I mentioned happens to have quite a temper, unfortunately. She got soooo pissed off last Friday when her teacher tried (yet again) to make her use her right hand she ended up lobbing the mouse right past the teacher's left ear (precious child told us that she 'wasn't aiming' but was 'sick 'n tired of the teacher always on my case 'bout it' and it 'just doesn't feel right or work good' for her). The teacher told Kylie's mom that Ky had a 'very low frustration factor'; turns out Ky has to go through this on a daily basis.
Next time I'm over at her house visiting I'm going to show the sweet cherub how to change the mouse settings to accomodate a lefty. :ebil: She's bright (& mischievous) enough to pull it off.

You know how you see guys in movies put a bare fist through a window without sustaining any injury? THAT DOESN'T REALLY HAPPEN!
You found that out the painful way, eh?
Renzatic on 19/2/2007 at 19:07
Yup. And contrary to what seems to be becoming popular belief around here, it wasn't on purpose. :p

This reminds me of a crazy Icelandic show that was aired not many years ago. Just a group of guys trying all sorts of screwed up things.
One of the "experiments" was to try to break a car window with the fist.
You can probably guess how that went; the poor fella who was the lucky one to try it out, was feeling such awful pain when trying to punch again and again with the fist or the elbow, while I was laughing my ass off. :D

I put my ass through a window once. Well, more like a sliding glass patio door.
Good times.

There has to be some repercussions for mooning the neighbours.

It is actually quite easy to break a window with your hand without hurting yourself. You just have to remember to wrap your hand first, with a jacket or a towel(and its shown in movies too, like "Fast and Furious 2"). Same goes with breaking tiles, you have to lay a sheet over first. I knew a person who forgot to once... had a gash all up his forearm.

My hubby uses the right hand for the mouse,and keeps it on the right too.Though he is left handed.
Yet a friend keeps the mouse on the left, and can not use it on the right very well.:confused:
I too use the right hand for the mouse.
