Right or left?

Golunvolo's polo on whether people use their right or left eye got my wondering about the correlation between handedness, so let's find out with our little NG sample pool!

While I am totally right-handed,
I do use the mouse in the left hand...

I'm left-handed and always use the mouse on the left side. I recommend all friends and family members to do the same as they thus lessen the risk of carpal tunnel syndrome.

I also use the mouse in the left hand, and that is because I write with the right hand.
There is no illusion, it just looks that way.

I am right handed, but as I played the drums for a long time I can do a lot with my left....

Right-handed, with one exception: when riding a bicycle one-handed, I vastly prefer the left. Ah yes, and when using a phone, left hand and ear too.
And Right-eyed, despite lesser IQ of said eye (was a problem only in ancient army times for precision shooting)

I'm wierd handed :P I write with my left hand, play badminton and other stuff with my right hand and the wierd part: I eat with the fork in my left hand and knife in the right hand, but when I need to spread butter on bread, I switch the knife to my left hand. I can do it with my right hand, but prefer to do it with the left.
