Quotes
-
Didi Pickles : [watches Chuckie draw a picture of Chas' face] Chuckie's very artistic, Chas! Say, I-I never noticed before, but i-is he left-handed?
Charles "Chas" Finster : Oh, he's been switching back and forth.
[shrugs]
Charles "Chas" Finster : Um, I'm sure it's perfectly normal.
Charlotte Pickles : *Normal*? You know what being left-handed *means*, don't you?
Charles "Chas" Finster : [point down at his left palm] Uh, using your left hand?
Charlotte Pickles : Well, exactly! Which means Chuckie will be different, as in he won't fit in, as in he won't make the right friends, as in... he'll never get into an Ivy League college!
Didi Pickles : Now, Charlotte, that's not true! Left-handers can do everything right-handers do.
Drew Pickles : Wasn't Uncle Hugh a lefty?
Stu Pickles : Yeah. He never had a problem, except remember how he always put his pants on backwards?
[Stu and Drew burst out laughing]
Didi Pickles : Stu, please!
[to Chas]
Didi Pickles : Chuckie will be just fine.

Didi Pickles : I think it's very special that Chuckie's left-handed. Only ten percent of the population *is*, you know.
Charlotte Pickles : Still, he'll need special scissors, desks, notebooks, and he'll never be able to drive a stick shift!
Didi Pickles : [shrugs] Well, *I* can't even do that.
Angelica Pickles : Aunt Didi, can I play with Cousin Dil?
Didi Pickles : No, honey, he's got a little cold today.
Angelica Pickles : Humph!
