This is the second time you've used this expression today and the second time I've wondered what you've meant.

Because in my experience, there's no such thing.

Wonk has mild ed. Which is why he prefers semicolons.

You need an explanation? She keeps track of everything she eats, including use of a scale, and works out with a trainer but still thought she needed to lose 10 lbs so she made the "subtle" change of cutting out carbs.

Penske's fastest riding was done in a brazillian cut speedo (desoto) and carbon sole (lite weight) bike shoes. Maybe a pair of Oakleys. anything more is for pussies and Aunt Beas, although that may be a distinction without a difference.

She's got an ed and doesn't want us all being a pain in her stunning ass about it.

No worries, e/o, whatever you have to deal with, don't worry, we have your backside.

Doc Burger gave him a prescription, so now he's in the bathtub with a colon.

Because he typically smokes on the way to the park.

Mr Man and I are both lefties who golf right-handed. It probably doesn't matter for me, as I was never much of a slugger at softball, but it does feel right (as in correct) to have my stronger arm forward during my swing. I think it is pretty common for left-handed people to be told to play right-handed, particularly in my generation because there were more/better club options, etc. I was taught both ways as a kid and basically chose to play righty when I took up the game as an adult. I still sometimes have to think through which way to stand when putting, but that is probably due to my mild putting disorder.

Phil "Manboobs" Mickelson is a righty who golfs left-handed.

No helmet? That might explain a few things.

Getting on someone for going to those lengths in anticipatory sympathy for his wife and mother is just cruel.

I have a buddy who is a lefty and used to golf left-handed. He probably never broke 100. Switched to righty and now consistently shoots in the 80s.

I also like having my strong hand/arm forward.

Your last sentence is outstanding.

He used a lot of hair product, which created a stiff protective lacquered finish to his head. Plus, with his madd bike handling skillz, he never went down.

I, on the other hand, went down on Sunday on leisurely 30 miler, although I attribute that to still being under the influence of many tequilas from the earlier hours of the same morning.

A final golf anecdote, Mr Man is a powerful driver -- he hits the ball further than anyone I have ever played with -- and I've never (really! never!) seen him slice. I think that is all about power arm forward and not trying to kill it as you would with a baseball swing.
