One-handed Activities and What They Prove, Part I

On a QWERTY keyboard, you can type all the letters of the word "Create" with your left hand while holding a cup of coffee in your right hand, which is proof that left-handed people are naturally superior to right-handed people.

And this is to say that righties can't do that? What kind of righty can't type with his or her left hand? huh?

Plus, righties can type "link-up" while holding coffee in their left hands. Also "hinky." And "plunk." The left hand never even gets over there to the quotation marks. Ever think of that?

heh.

Well, I'm tempted to come up with phrases such as "No monopoly on junk" just to demonstrate that the right half of the keyboard is just as useful, but to do it justice I'd need computer tools I don't have access to anymore. (Basically, screen a dictionary file and remove any word with letters from the part of the keyboard you wish not to use.)
