    I have been told I eat right handedly despite being left handed. How? I am using a spoon or fork, so the fork goes in the left hand.

    I use the mouse with my right because that is where it has always been. But I kinda suck at quick fine pointing, the more an game relies on twitch reactions/aiming the worse I am at it, and by a lot. Slower paced ones or ones where you dont need much accuracy I can do OK in.

    So war thunder I do really well in because you usually have multiple seconds to work with as the turret rotates, but CSGO there isn’t even a point in trying. Genuinely 2 kills 10 deaths kinda bad.

      As a fellow lefty, I feel your pain. I love competitive shooters but I will never climb above the bottom rung of Gold tier.

      i’ve never understood people who say you hold the knife with your dominant hand, i’m as right handed as it gets and i hold my fork in the right hand because i want maximum control over the thing holding the food!
      Sure, that leaves the knife hand with less power and precision, but like if i need that much force then something has gone wrong when cooking…

        I was out to dinner with my family a while back and when I ended up sitting on the right side of the bench my brother made a comment about how I wasn’t going to be able to cut my food right handed for some reason. I was like… What? And just switched hands back and forth several times while I was doing it to demonstrate. I didn’t even realize that was a thing people worried about.

      That’s the right-handed way, is it not? Dominant hand holds the knife.
