So basically this kid was fraternising with a left hander all along, smdh.

quote:

Kangaroos prefer to use their left forelimb to do things, say researchers, who have reported the first ever discovery of human-like handedness in animals.


Kangaroo hand

quote:

"What we see in kangaroos is the same strength of handedness as we see in humans,", says lead author, Associate Professor Yegor Malashichev, a zoologist at Saint Petersburg State University in Russia.

"But the direction of this handedness is opposite to humans ... They use their left forelimb to wipe their snout, or to collect food and so on."

True handedness refers to a population-wide trend in which the majority of individuals prefer one hand over the other to carry out a number of tasks, says Malashichev.

we were getting high over at my friends house and we were watching that video of kangaroos fighting on a golf course in australia while eye of the tiger was playing and i was like could you imagine being the first white guy to see this poo poo? some englishman or dutchman or Portuguese or whatever sailing by and witnessing that poo poo from their boat or whatever, pouring out their spirits and sticking to water from then on because clearly the drink has taken its toll on their miinds. it was just so drat weird

I would have been much happier not knowing this. Now every time I see a group of kangaroos I'm going to check which forepaw they're using.

I'm left handed and that video pretty much sums up my life in Australia. I want to move somewhere people are more tolerant of my lifestyle.

Australia was founded on a traditional western right handed heritage, and right handed people are what made Oz what it is today. If you can't accept that your worthless poo poo you should piss of to lefty bullshit New Zealand.

Kanga's are all good thou. those dumb fucks don't know any better.

Lol, gently caress living in Australia. As a lefty I had a couple issues with teachers trying to get me to use my right hand to write with when I was young, but since then it's only been the occasional comment.

Edit:
It's actually kind of a cool personality trait. "Oh, you're left handed? How ~different and cool~."

Why is every game i play unbalanced in the other guys favour?
Aren't left handed people more likely to be rapists and psychos?

Explains why all kangaroos want to kill you.
