Lefties have a tough time of it. Doomed to smear birthday cards with their inky side hand, use measuring tapes upside-down and always have a tough time getting into a bottle of wine, they honestly got the short straw when it came to this thing we call life. Not to mention the fact that every time they pull out a pen, they're destined to answer that dreaded question: "Oh, are you left-handed?" But we've got news for you, lefties! Life is about to get a whole lot better and it's all because some kind-hearted people (let's face it: likely left-handers themselves) have created devices specially designed to help you navigate your way through this world. Time to get the credit card out!
