    I would buy the right-handed pencils, because I’m right handed. You shouldn’t buy mismatched pencils, below is a story showing what happens.

    the story

    Left-handed pencils for 20 cents each - Right-handed pencils, 5 for 1 dollar

    My friend Paul bought a pencil at this exact store. He’s left-handed, but the store had somehow ran out of left-handed pencils. So, being the smart-ass he is, Paul thought:

    — Golly! I’ll just buy a right-handed one. It’s a great deal, even! 5 whole pencils, all for one dollar!

    That was his gravest mistake.

    He picked up the pencil with his left hand, as usual. It beeped thrice, rang a bit, then exploded. He lost his left arm, and only survived because he received immediate medical attention.

    This is what happens when you use a mismatched pencil. It may not look like it at first, but which hand you use them with matters. Spread this message.
