      Part of how scissors are design is for there to be a natural tendency to pull the blades together when you press with your thumb.

      On a reladed note, if you’re left-handed, get a pair of left-handed scissors. There are two reasons for this. First, you will be amazed at how much easier it is to cut with the correct scissors. Second, you can have your friends who don’t think having the correct scissors is a big deal try them and see how wrong they are.

      Yes. Yes you have.

      The only thing worse than loose scissors is overtightened scissors, though, so it’s a fine line.
