The few things that do bother me: - Scissors
- Papermate erasable pens... when I was a kids these were all the rage. My hand would be blue from the ink smudge.
- Binders and ringed notebooks... fucking rings are always in the way.
- Neat handwriting. I hated cursive writing and eventually switched back to a cross between printing and cursive that worked well for me...
I do benefit when I am doing Kendo. The power hand is the left hand, the right hand is used for directionality (i.e. where you will hit). Most right-handed people starting out in Kendo have a hard time not using their right hand to power their strikes. It was easy for me...

Yeah my handwriting was always messy and smudged when I wrote in cursive. I quit writing in cursive back in grade school and now I only print. Cursive is kinda pointless anyways, whenever you have to write something or fill out a form, it's always supposed to be printed.
They do make left handed scissors now though. I hate spiral binders and notebooks also, but these are all minor annoyances to me. I really don't care any more.
