OK, so now you can’t cope with even a short spell of using the mouse, huh? So I’ve hit the spacebar too often, hey, thumb? Well screw you. Now I need to look at taking it seriously, and I suppose you find it funny that I should really shell out for a new chair, desk, trackball and whatever? Huh? And you, carpal tunnel, I hear your snickering, I know you’re just waiting to fuck around, like with every member of my family. It’s not like I need the use of my hands, or anything…
Ah. Another one comes to the Dark Side : Trackballs!
I have carpal tunnel too… I got it from cake decorating. Using the computer used to put my hands to sleep and make my wrists hurt. I wore the stupid braces and took a good look at my desk.
I use a thumb trackball and a microsoft natural keyboard now and I no longer have sleeping, painful hands.
A more ergonomic computer station is much better than surgery to repair those wrists. Good luck!
You are correct to pit your right hand: I’ve heard that it’s a complete wanker.
Never let your left hand know that your right hand is being pitted.
If thine eye offend thee, pluck it out
If thy right hand offend thee…
I’m just here to put my left thumb in the pit, with the OP’s right hand. Who’d a thought it would make doing so many things so much more difficult to have a malfunctioning thumb on my off hand? Burn you fucker Burn!!
