Important question: When you fold your hands...
Which thumb is on top?

Does it feel odd to fold them the other way or are you an ambi-folder?

Right on top is just wrong. My hands are obviously liberal!

10. 'Left-on-top' people are evil freaks
We 'right-on-tops' are superior, and must destroy them.

9. Am I an ambi-folder?
I think we should leave my sex life out of this.

Almost a thumb-twiddler.

I am left handed if that makes a difference.

edit --

Actually, I noticed if I interlock my fingers the right is always on the top. If I keep my fingers together the left is always on the top. Switching feels very awkward.

20. I think we're on to something:
I'm right handed. (And wear a wedding ring on my left hand for full disclosure.)

Interlocked fingers: Left thumb on top.

Hands folded with fingers together: Right thumb on top.

We've got a left hander and a right hander with exactly opposite thumb supremacies for each type of hand fold.

Anyone else care to help increase the statistical database?

18. Right on top, but I write with my right hand. I'm a bit ambidextrous.
I also tend to eat with my left hand, although I can eat with my right if I want to. Aren't you thrilled? :D :hi:

19. Is this a trick question? I tried it and it doesn't work.
I'd need two left hand or two right hands to thumb wrestle solo
