Refers to threads on a screw, nut, bolt, etc. To tighten, you turn to the right (clockwise). To loosen, you turn toward the left (counter clockwise). A few exceptions exist, notably old propane cylinders and some pipe fittings.

Lefty Hefty Righty Flighty. That’s not a righty tighty screw. It’s a lefty hefty. If you want to remove it, it’s a righty flighty. :) *looks at left over screw*

A metaphorical way of a telling a gay or lesbian you are straight and have no desire or capacity for a same-sex hookup.
You tell a bi I switch hit, but only in baseball.

At the batting cage....
Lesbian standing outside cage: I just LOOOVEE the way you swing the bat left-handed. Can you hit lefty with me?
Me: Hell, no! I hit lefty, but only in baseball! I I throw righty.

White Girls between the age of 12 and 16 that spout nonsensical shit like ACAB and Black Lives Matter. Leftys usually post black squares on their instagram when a black person is brutally murdered by Police. Usually, they're only dangerous if you have an opposing opinion. If you happen to encounter one they may bark at you, call you a racist, or call you a homophobic. They do like to harass conservatives and right-wing people. Their main habitat is usually in the deep parts of California, New York, and Illinois. They're pretty much scattered around the U.S.

The polician's leftiness became most apparent when, as camera's rolled, he started handing out bootstraps to the mostly crowd who, unforuntately, had no boots...
