Which thumb do you hit the space bar with?

[bacon333]

I noticed that one side of my spacebar was shinier than the other side.

 

[Kalvin00]

Both.

 

[CraigRT]

i really wasn't sure until i tried it for myself.. lol

right

 

[Eli]

Both. I haven't really figured out what it depends on, either...

Left, simply due to WASD gaming.

- M4H

 

[amdforever2]

Same, probably for same reason.

 

[PunDogg]

right

 

[Chompman]

Left it mostly seems since the fps wasd has me set on that now

And also since I am right handed the other one is busy if I am "chatting" ...

 

[jst0ney]

the right without exception

 

[Tiamat]

I think that i hit the space bar with both hands, but there is a definate shiny part where my right thumb hits.

 

[Paulson]

there's a shiny spot on my right side, don't ever hit the left side...

Doesn't apply to me since I jump with the right mouse button.

yeah.. and I can't seem to prove in practice that I hit it with both either.. so I'm guessing that I'm deluding myself. right wins.

Well, as I'm typing this message, I'm using my left thumb.

I really had to type a sentence to check

 

[Heisenberg]

Always right. That's just the way I learned to type.

 

[Zugzwang152]

when typing, i use my right predominantly but i use my left for a few words. WASD gaming of course, is all left.

 

[Chronoshock]

Left, it's pretty shiny there. I'm also left-handed

 

[UnatcoAgent]

I usually hit it with the right, now that I noticed since you asked.

 

[JustAnAverageGuy]

Left if I'm playing a game

Which kind of put me left thumb permanently. I'm right handed though.

My right thumb just kind of sits on the anti carpal tunnel plastic extender thingy. Doesnt' really do anything.

My keyboarding teachers from years ago hated me and my own method of typing. Pity they didn't really care that my speeds were 3-5x faster than the rest of the class.

I could just never adapt to homerow. Too much to think about. You know what else I hated? Having to memorize the damn keys? Seriously, what's the point of that? Not like it's going to help.

Right for typing, left for gaming, of course. And yes, I had to check to see which thumb I used during typing.

Depends on what i am writing you loon.

 

[lokiju]

Both.

 

[clamum]

Just the left now because the right side of the spacebar won't register cause I broke it. Otherwise it was both.
