Left-handed April Fools

Three great left-handed April Fool’s jokes today.

The left-handed cappuccino
The left-handed burger
Left-handed ropes

Café chain Doppio Zero in South Africa launched a left-handed cappuccino, with a view to introducing a range of left-handed drinks and meals.

Also in South Africa, a burger chain called Steers launched a left-handed burger, redesigned so it fits more comfortably in the left hand. Apparently, the new lefty Steers burgers ‘will have all the condiments rotated 180 degrees, thereby redistributing the weight of the sandwich so that the bulk of them skew to the left’.
And get this, the spokesperson in their press release was Avril Foley….

Finally to Milton Keynes, where southpaw visitors to the Aerial Extreme outdoor adventures course can use special 'left-handed' ropes – wound anti-clockwise to give a better grip. And they even went to the lengths of producing left-handed leaflets explaining the new system, which open from left to right! The first 10 left-handers who applied before noon today (April 1) could try the course for free.

Keep ‘em coming.
