Ambisinistrous--Ann

* am·bi·sin·is·ter

[am-bi-sin-uh-ster] 
adjective
clumsy or unskillful with both hands.
*http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ambisinister, but the Urban dictionary disagrees and defines it "Both left handed; dominant left, but uses right hand for particular tasks. Contrary to notion that it means bad with both hands.


Ann, who is left-handed, opposes the more common definition of ambisinister and appreciates urban dictionary's more politically correct respect for south paws.
