You are totally right. I know well what it is. Tough I prefer to express it like:
If what you have to say is not prettier than silence.... STFU

I find that they start repeating a discussion that was closed an hour ago, just to prolong the irritation. Being old and cantankerous I am in the habit of walking out when that starts.

...or that is irrelevant to the discussion, or doesn't concern more than two members, or fit's their agenda and no-one else's.
It's just an example of the old maxim: The IQ of a committee is the IQ of the lowest member, divided by the number of members.

This still fascinates me...
Scientific terms that describe chirality:
Sinistral - from sinister -> meaning left
Dextral - from dexter -> meaning right
"ambidextrous" is as follows:
Ambi -> meaning Both
Dexter -> meaning right.
Thus if you are ambidextrous you are "Both Right". Slap in da face for The sinisters

Although we tend to dwell on the Latin derivation
Dexterity
From the Latin "dexter," for "right" (in the sense of right-left).
I suggest that the derivation is more akin to the typical meanings as described Here^, and that label thus applied to 'right'. Since left-handedness was considered (rightly) an ill omen, it was logically named such.
You're welcome to disagree, but that would, indeed, have sinister implications.

Oh good, I always wanted to be sinister.
Now if only Logitech would make a left-handed gaming mouse... I've gotten used to using a right-handed one with my left hand, and it's just not the same.

Hmm, might work... I'm currently using a G500[^]
EDIT: Nah, pass... Checked the reviews... Looks like Razer hasn't gotten any better. Shoddy hardware, bloated software.

Am I the only one who looks at those cyborg mice and thinks, "That can't possibly be comfortable"?

So that's why the weather is so sinister today...

My fourteen-year-old daughter is left-handed, and she is very much proud of it. She is the only left-handed person in her class at school (35+ students).

In the US, when I was a kid at least, we got the scissors with the green rubber handles. They were way better.
