International Left-Handers Day is August 13th this year, and chances are everyone has at least one special lefty in their life that reminded them we should be celebrating. My grandpa was a lefty and took every chance he got – through words, mugs, and apparel – to remind the world he and is ilk were superior to us boring righties.

That said, lefties are still in the minority, so let’s take a moment to remember that being different can present some challenges – as these 15 images prove without a doubt.
