Lefty Lose-y
Words by Rhett Boyakin Art by Rhett Boyakin
WHEN LEFTYS LOOK AT THE WORLD, ALL THEY SEE IS RIGHT-HANDED PRIVILEGE.
​
In this politically correct climate, it’s only fair to recognize another group who’s been very discriminated against. (And still is.) This group makes up roughly 10% of the U.S. population. These people were born the way they are. I am one of them. We are left-handed people. Southpaws, in some circles. And unfortunately, we’ve had to adapt to a right-handed world.
How so? Here are 5 WAYS the right keeps on screwing the left:
Can openers
Hungry? Left-handed? Then you’re probably gonna starve.
Notebooks (binder on the left side)
When people say that taking notes is a pain, they’re speaking figuratively. Unless they’re left-handed.
Buttons on a watch
Frustrating x3.
Ice cream scoopers
Every flavor is a Rocky Road … when you have difficulty scooping it out.

You can’t even stick it to the man without doing it “the right way.”
So, what does this all mean? That it’s never been a better time to fight for your lefts.
