Cultural table manners

[MeAndroo]

As a left hander i always enjoyed reminding folk how to properly hold their utensils.
It was my way of getting my own back on a rightist world that descriminates against the obvious superiority of the left hand.
:wave: <- Lefties for teh winzies!

How do you lefties typically deal with the problem of having your eating arm in the same basic location of a righty on your left side while eating? I've seen people hit elbows, of course, but do you ever switch seats, or are you conscious of it while being seated?
