Unfortunately the British colonised quite a bit of the world, and left their legacy where, and I quote "we drive on the left side of the road, which is the right side of the road to drive"

We all used to drive on the left. T'was good for the sword! This is supposed to be where the right handed variation came from;

Which Side? wrote:The papal system prevailed until the late 1700s, when teamsters in the United States and France began hauling farm products in big wagons pulled by several pairs of horses. These wagons had no driver's seat; instead the driver sat on the left rear horse, so he could keep his right arm free to lash the team. Since you were sitting on the left, naturally you wanted everybody to pass on the left so you could look down and make sure you kept clear of the other guy's wheels. Ergo, you kept to the right side of the road.

And of course France took over the world with Napolean and now we all drive on the right.

Except Britain. And Japan. And a few others. Maybe.

Speaking of which, Sweden was the last mainland European country to switch to the right in 1967. You learn something new every day!

australians drive on the left (we are a throwback to british colonial imperialism after all)

As do several East African countries, and Thailand as well.

...Or is it Laos?

I don't remember exactly which sides are being changed which when traveling between those two countries, but their border has this really nifty system of allowing you to swap over non-stop.
In a pretty meadow with colourful flowers and trees, the lanes on the highway split up into two smaller roads which slowly divert away from each other, and then curve back towards each other with one going into a tunnel and the other going over a rise, which is above the tunnel, and then once back to level they slowly curve back towards each other, completing a figure-eight as they merge back together

ON the road? Who drives ON the road?

I might, had I the time and inclination to get my licence.

But to go back on topic, I shall update you all with my ongoing Search String Saga (though I'm sure I'm the only one who hasn't ceased to be amused)... Guess who's now on the first page(!) when you type in "final fantasy hentai" or "super hentai" at google.ca?

Eh, I never get interesting search strings, except for that person who keeps searching for "how to become a werelion." Honestly.

Were these what people who came to my site typed in? I had just figured out clicking the months led to more in depth info...

Yep, your search strings show you what people are looking for when they come across your comic.

If you want one, make one.

I would, but december isn't over yet.

That didn't stop whoever did make the December Serach String thread.

HOLD ON A SECOND! That was YOU!

Heh . . . well . . . um . . .

One slap on the wrist for you.
