The contrast with the front of the house is, shall we say, surprising.

Maybe Nonconformists.

Have you considered using it to make a tie die t shirt?

How might you pronounce that?

There is so much important news going on at the moment. So what did The Sun choose as a full page headline. Being the most important issue for their readers? Do people still buy the Sun now that page 3 has gone?

In all fairness they are owning their own story. As the Telegraph does with their ’scoops’.

Being seriously newsworthy is no priority……….move along…….

Just had an amusing Bluesky exchange... someone who's broken their shoulder saying how difficult only having one functional arm is when it's your dominant side, and my immediate thought was when an injury prevented me from using toilet paper for its intended (arse) purpose with my dominant hand - which was cited by someone else as being tricky. Despite being partially ambidextrous, it was a surprisingly difficult challenge to get the necessary result, and made me appreciate the skill my left hand had developed.

So, is anyone here an ambidextrous arse-wiper, or do you unthinkingly *always* use your dominant hand? As I suggest, I suspect you've never even thought about it. Maybe you think of fluffy labrador puppies instead...

Which reminds me of one of my favourite cartoons...

Not something which dominates my day to thoughts, to be honest..... but, since you ask.... no. 😊

Useless bit of trivia. There's some religious reason that means that muslims are supposed to wipe/wash with their left hand. Left handed people and people who don't have use of their right hand are looked upon with suspicion because their dominant hand is "dirty".

What a surprise, It would appear you are not the first to ponder this 😂

Probably comes from a not-unsensible notion before soap/sanitiser that using one hand for eating and the other for wiping one's arse guards against directly inserting e-coli into the digestive system.

Indeed, the problem is the mandate is to use the left hand, not the dominant hand, and because religious tradition is followed quite inflexibly, specially when it comes to Muhammed's neuroticism, left handed people are at a disadvantage.
