Left Or Right?

You know, there are times when we do things so many times that we don't really pay attention to it anymore. Things like brushing teeth, open door knobs, you know.

Don't agree with me? Well let's play a game. Think of someone you think you know best, other than yourself. Then answer the following questions. Do not simulate the experience. For example, when I ask you "which hand do you use to write", you don't imagine yourself picking up a pencil and start writing. If you don't know, just say so.

Imagine a door, in front of you. The door opens outwards, with the hinge at your left hand side. Which hand do you use to twist the doorknob?
A. Left
B. Right
C. Depends
D. Dunno

You're going to brush your teeth. Do you brush the teeth to the left first, or to the right?
A. Left
B. Right
C. Depends (again?)
D. Dunno

You're standing up. You took a step forward. Which leg moved first?
A. Left
B. Right
C. Both (yeah right! I said took a step, not hopped!)
D. Depends (don't lie!)
E. Dunno

You're using a computer. Do you press the spacebar with your left or right finger?
A. Left
B. Right
C. Both (idiot!)
D. Depends (...)
E. Dunno

You're eating. Do you chew more on the left or on the right side on the mouth?
A. Left
B. Right
C. Evenly
D. Depends (pick this again and there won't be a D for next question)
E. Dunno

Your backpack is on the floor. You picked it up, and put it on. Which hand do you slide through first?
A. Left
B. Right
C. Both together (are you an acrobat or a clown?)
D. Depends
E. Dunno

You're barechested/topless/top-naked. Now you're wearing a T-shirt. Which hand do you put through its appropriate sleeve first?
A. Left
B. Right
C. Both together (imagine yourself doing that. It's stupid! Like a frog!)
D. Depends
E. Dunno

Now you're trying to wear a pair of jeans. Which leg do you insert first?
A. Left
B. Right
C. Both together (I'd like to see that)
D. Depends
E. Dunno

I still have plenty more questions but I think that's enough for now. If your answers are mostly 'dunno's, well I can conclude that you're an honest person. If your answers are mostly 'both's or 'depends'es, you're pretty much of a joker.

If your answers are mainly A's or B's, are you sure you didn't cheat? OK if you're so sure, try this test again, but this time, imagine the person you know best in the situations instead. See if you really know him/her that well!

*Pssst: my answers are mainly A's and B's but I admit I cheated. A lot.
