Excerpt On Left Nut Discussion

[12:59] Him: see, now his comment contains naughty words that her virgin ears shouldn't read
[13:00] Him: uh, virgin eyes
[13:00] Me: Hehe.
[13:00] Me: That's okay, she's probably not a virgin.
[13:00] Him: then what's the problem? she's already familiar with men's left nuts
[13:00] Me: Haha.
[13:00] Me: But why not right ones?
[13:01] Him: those too
[13:01] Me: Maybe they say it to avoid ambiguity; if they say, "My right nut" people may take it to mean, "My correct nut" or "My nut that is honourable."
[13:02] Him: or maybe they are part of the conspiracy of right-handed people who value everything on the right, while conflating all things left as sinister and evil.
[13:03] Me: Maybe. But wouldn't you rather keep your evil nut than your "nice" one?
[13:03] Him: like, if you had to give an arm, you'd give your right, since you're left handed. but if you're right handed, you'd give your left arm, and hence your left nut
[13:03] Me: That makes no sense and you know it.
[13:03] Him: well, depends on the nature of its evilousity
[13:04] Me: I would assume it's the one that whispers to your unit, "Psst! Yo, over there,... see that? Yeah, point yourself in that direction, buddy. Right on."
[13:04] Him: I think, given the purpose of a nut, that'd be it's JOB, and thus it'd be doing good.
[13:04] Him: no, it does make sense. given two identical nuts, either is fair game for a trade. but given the cultural bias against the left side, the left nut is considered inferior
[13:05] Me: I wonder if people in Britain, who drive on the other side of the road, say, "I say there, Nigel. I would give my right nut for that crumpet."
