Subject: Bizarre Poll #1 - Crossing your arms

Written By: FussBudgetVanPelt on 09/04/05 at 1:37 am

OK give it a go, unless you happen to know the answer without trying.

Now try it the other way, does it feel just plain WRONG or what ?  ;D

My right hand goes over my left arm. I'm the ONLY person I know who does this, it kinda scares me.

Being called Spudboy wouldn't help your cause either  ;D ;D ;D

Seriously, I thought of this as I was watching TV, there were a whole bunch of people sitting with their arms crossed, and I would say the ratio was 60/40  left over right, so don't feel bad Dom  :)

Definitely left over right. It does also work the other way round, but it feels awkward.

NO! I answered wrong! I said my right arm ends up on top... I meant... My left is on top, tucked under, and my right hand is over my left arm... I don't know anybody like that besides me...

That's like me... But I'm right handed, but then again, I do everything else with my left

Whatever you do, Tanya, it's normal  :o

Mercifully we (least, I hope, we all) have progressed from the days I remember at school where the teachers would MAKE kids who were left-handed write with their right hand  :(

Scary isn't it  :(

I am left footed, when it comes to kicking a ball.  I swear you would have thought I had the plague or something the way some people used to point it out.

HEY !  You kick with your left foot  :o :o :o :o

"So?"

Well, it's just odd, that's all

"Something's odd around here alright, but it's not my foot"  ;D ;D ;D ;D

OK...

Left on top of right but I do not tuck my hands, I hook my thumb in the crook (I'm not sure what else to call it) of my right elbow, hands resting on my arms.
