Why are most of baseball's greatest hitters left-handed?

I know some left-handed people that play the guitar in the "right-handed" position (left hand on the neck). Could it be that it's actually a left-handed instrument?

Why isn't there a left-handed piano?

There's a disproportionate percentage of lefties in prison, why?

What's with lefty scissors, is this a sham?
 
I'm left-handed. I grew up using all things made for righties. So, I wouldn't even know how to play a left-handed guitar or or use those lefty scissors.

I have it on good measure that lefties make better lovers. :)


For reasons I can't fathom, my greatest relationships have been with lefties. lol

Because they pull to Right Field, and that's where they put all the sucky Outfielders.

It could also be possible that a guitar is just a harp with a strap.

Good question. I'll bet there is.

The Lefties are too busy hitting triples over the sucky guys in Right Field.

No, poo is a sham.
 
What would a left handed piano look like? Or is that a joke I just didn't get?

Does it count if BOTH parents are lefties???

as it so happens, I'm not planning on having sex with my parents, so you're on your own bubba.
 
Yes, the scales would be reversed so everything the right hand normally plays the left hand would then be able to play. I'll be someone's built one somewhere. Probably for Hitler or something.
 
Why do they call them left handed? Doesn't everyone have a left hand?

The keys would be switched, right?

Exactly,

I'm convinced that if the low keys were in the right hand, and vice versa, I could totally kick ass on the piano.

How so? You mean the low note keys would be on the opposite side? Why?

I'm getting the feeling I'm going to look awfully dumb very soon.

Ok, and I dont' play, but when you do play, is the right hand side more dominant in composed music than the left? I mean do you use it more?
 
on the same theme as the piano... would a left-handed keyboard cause lefties to be more prolific typers?

Yes.

You use it to turn the pages.

Yes, but you'd have to have a mirror handy to read it.
 
I don't think "most" of baseball's best hitters are lefthanded, but it's clearly a disproportionate number. The main reason is likely due to the fact that most pitchers are righthanded, and lefties hit righthanders better than other righties do.

I'll go along with lefties making better lovers. I can always use a new selling point.

"What do you want to call them? Right-handed Challenged?"


No. I want to call them hedious mutant FREAKS. That's not PC tho.
 
In Latin, left means, "sinister"...

But it helps in the military, where marching is "left" justified. I hate the "Rightcentric" hand/power tools conspiracy, and most things that are "right-justified." (mowers/motorcycles/airplanes/autos/books/porno mags/landscape/geometry/weapons)
*Besides, left handed people have shorter lives (probably accidents with right handed things) than the "righties", so give us a little slack! :D
