I dare say your dad is being a smart a**. A smoothy won't turn you into a lefty (whatever the hell that means), but you shouldn't drink too many because they are bad for you. There was an article in the paper yesterday about how many smoothies are higher in sugar than soft drinks and have little to no health benefit as the act of juicing fruit removes most of it's nutrient.

There's even a book out about how some folks on the political "right" are admitting they're interested in the same quality-of-food, quality-of-living things that attract lefties to the organic greens, etc. It's called "Crunchy Cons", by Rod Dreher of the Dallas News.

Haven't you ever heard that left-handed people are the only ones in their right mind?
I'm not sure how smoothies are related to being a lefty, however.

No that's not true. I drink plenty of smoothies and I'm still a righty. And I don't think lefties are jerks either.

That's a new one on me--I've never heard of anyone even claiming that anything you do would change you to a lefty, unless you were trying to force yourself to change. And I haven't heard of anyone who thought of lefties as any different from anybody else for literally ages--we get our word "sinister" from the Latin for "left."

I'm a born lefty. I've never heard anything like that but it sounds ridiculous.
And no, we're not all jerks. There are also right-handed jerks.

That's absolutely crazy. There's positively no...proof...that. Waitaminute. My girlfriend loves smoothies. She claims to be "Iron Chef: Smoothie." And she's left handed.
I wonder if your dad might be right.

My mother, both of my sisters, and my brother were left-handed long before smoothies were invented.
And I don't know (nor do I wish to know) how any of them votes!

Tell your dad to pull his head out of the sand and breath some fresh air.
