Left,right? Either one won't feel good if I connect.
All I know is that I have two feet.....and seem to fall down a lot
I tried velcro once.....all I managed to do was stick myself to the carpet
Did you read the instruction manual before using?
Instruction manual?? ......that could explain a lot!

You know, there was a time (here) that to be a "left-footer" was to be gay (in the modern sense). As in: "You know that Elton John? Is he a left-footer, you reckon?"
"Are you left-footed?" would then mean...
So, as a younger man, I was always very careful to say I used my left foot when playing football (soccer). In footie slang, of course, if you have no or very low ability in your 'wrong' foot, it's sometimes referred to as your 'swinger'. So I was a left-footer with a swinger.
See why I chose my words very carefully? (It didn't stop the jokes and general mickey-taking, though.)

So let me get this straight..... you're a left footer and a swinger???
I bet you're invited to lots of parties.....
Did you know that Lola rhymes with Cola?

Not that there's anything wrong with that
You know - I'm actually kind of complicated in this regard. When I'm getting on a horse or a motor cycle, my right foot wants to be planted first. But when using my feet to refill the hot water in the tub, it's my left foot who does that. I must be ambidextrous with my feets (yes, I know but this is a much better word).

I actually have two left feet when I'm dancing.

Yes it is. I meant that I am a terrible dancer. However I never let that stop me.

I knew what you meant. Here is the American president Gerald Ford with her Majesty the Queen - he was known for being clumsy.

Generally, no. When it's not true on an individual basis, yes - but only if comments are meant to be malicious. (And it was worse back then. It's a bit different now.)

Tame, compared to a lot of the "banter" that went round.
And you can imagine how much worse it got when I met one of my mates - a lad I'd known since we were 6 or 7, but who was (and presumably still is) gay - after one of the games, especially as we were actually off to the cinema together.
Am I being obtuse ??? what the hell is this thread about ???
