Default Re: I Met a Backwards Man

A lot of these stories sound bizarre to me. I have trouble picturing what that must be like. Strike that. I can't picture it at all.

This sounds very common given the number of people speaking up. Now I have some sympathy for all those students I've seen writing with their right hands while doing their right hand rules with their left . . .

Maybe check out Susan Greenfield - Brain Story. There are endless amounts of ways in how people's brains have defects/disorders, and very specific ways also.

My wife, who is 49 and very sharp, has started to mess up left and right a bit the past year or so. Not anything like this, of course, but forgetting which is the left and right, every once in a while, when I say "turn left at the light."

My first wife, in an infamous incident, was navigating while I was driving. She told me to turn right. There was no road there. Only trees. I was squinting, looking up ahead for the turn, when she began yelling at me with increasing frequency and fervor, "Turn right! Right, right, RIGHT!" I looked at her bewildered, and she was (of course) furiously pointing left.

I stopped the car and said, "Oh, THAT right."

Strangely, that marriage did not last.
