I write right handed, but do everything else lefty. Most people are like WTF when they find out.

I'm left, finding a decent mouse can be a pain in the ass, I finally just settled with a symmetrical one (logitech G3).

I leave the mouse buttons alone, but I have a co-worker that swaps the buttons so that the index finger is still the "left mouse click" (which actually means the right button for a left hander).

I just use my middle finger for left click and index for right.

Careful people, the OP is just seeking details to fill in his fantasies about us.

Right, but I have tried to train myself to use my left hand more over the years. Still can't write very well with it, but I brush my teeth with my left hand on occasion to mix things up and my mouse at work is set to use my left hand exclusively (I use my right hand for home-mousing).

my friend is left handed but just learned how to use a right handed mouse, you get way better options that way

My left hand is nearly worthless at times. I've played musical instruments for a long time and the lack of coordination has held me back.

I voted for left-handed, and associate myself as being left-handed (like my dad) though I am kind of a mess:

I eat, write, bat (baseball), play badminton, play golf, pick at a guitar and shoot pistols left-handed.
I throw, dribble (basketball), shoot (basketball), shoot rifles and play racquetball right-handed (I also kick right-footed).
I use to mouse left-handed, but switched many years ago to right-handed. Same with bowling.
I play tennis with two forehands and no backhand.

ambidextrous represent!

it is fun, and also comes in handy for switch hitting

You can't claim to be Ambidextrous unless you can throw 80mph+ fastball in the strike zone using both arms on back to back pitches.

I'm right-side dominant but consider myself ambidextrous. My left hand is slower with writing. Can eat with either hand just as well. It's amazing what two weeks in an long arm splint can do for skill rewiring.

I am a normal human being...I am right-handed.

Lefties are one step lower than gingers.

Lefty, but I do the following right handed: Use scissors, bat, golf, shoot rifle and handgun, play guitar. I only do the latter right handed because when I first took guitar lessons my dad didn't want to buy an extra lefty guitar for me so I just used his and learned right handed, haha.

I'm pretty much in the same category, I eat and write lefty but play golf and throw righty, I'm surprised to see so many other folks here are also "split" handed like us..
