Left-handed people tend to be either abnormally smart or abnormally stupid, not much in-between.

False. Left handed people are not more clever than right handed people. They may excell in different activities that right handed people may not be particularly good at, but this doesn't mean they are more or less clever individuals because of what hand they use to write with. We all have strengths and weaknesses regardless of whether we are left/ right handed. Left handed people will have qualities that will be exceptionally better than right handed people. This may be the way for lefty's to make up for some of their weaknesses and vice versa for right handed people.

Left-handed people tend to use the right side of their brain more frequently, which means that they are sometimes more creative thinkers.
I've also heard that left-handed people overall live shorter lives than right-handed people, but I have no idea why that would be and I hope it's not true because I'm left-handed too!

There are less Left handed people in the world so it might seem that they are cleverer, but the actual figures do not back up this view. I am Ambidextrous so does that mean I am of average intelligence.

It should be roughly the same in general comparison but of course the development of left handed people's brains might be different than that of right handed people like myself but I currently have a 3.6 GPA going into finals and I've got the best year-round average so far in 3 of my classes so I think I'd contradict your thesis here just a little bit.

No, false. they're just some what more capable, in some ways and less in others. They don't write as good, but they're good people.

No, but a study has shown that rightey's tend to be better at academics, while leftey's tend to be more artistic. Not saying it is always like that, it just tends to be.
