: I agree with halfhat - it is a tool to give the drawing the correct flow. They need to throw that way for the story to progress in the reading direction. And then it is easier to throw that way. Also remember that although we think of Megan as one person, this does not apply to Randal! Megan is just a stand-in for any girl (as are Cueball for any guy). Not so sure about Beret Guy though... I think it is a nice observation by the way. I did not see that. But to say that they are always left handed is not correct.

:I don't know about you, but when I look at the image it could go either way in terms of which hand they are using.  They are stick figures so you can't see shoulders, chests, or backs.  [[Special:Contributions/108.162.237.161|108.162.237.161]] 23:19, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

:No, it's pretty clear from the angle of the water's edge which way round we're looking. For those to be right hands, Megan and Beret Guy would have to be standing at a very strange angle to the water. Also the swoosh from Megan's stone goes behind her head.--[[Special:Contributions/108.162.249.215|108.162.249.215]] 04:22, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
