The 18 Worst Things For Left-Handed People

I can no longer be silent on the daily oppression of the left-handed community!

1. Spiral Notebooks

Hurts the side of your hand. The worst are the 5-subject with the extra big rings.

2. Writing in a 3-ring binder

You have to do that thing where you fit your hand between the top two, then eventually have to pick it up and fit it in between the bottom two.

4. Only 2 pairs of the green lefty scissors in class, 3 lefty kids.

Scrambling through the scissors to find the ones with the green rubber handles, only to see they’re already all gone.

8. iPad Kindle app - left side is back page

This is really annoying - if you prefer to hold it in your left hand, you have to move your hand all the way to the other side to tap. On a real Kindle, page forward is on both sides, thankfully.

9. Driver’s cup holder is for the right hand

So you have to hold your cup with your right hand.

11. Dying sooner, so becoming a zombie sooner

College lecture hall desks with postage-stamp sizes desks. You have to twist your back and hold up your arm to use.

13. Measuring cups show you the stupid metric side
