Because your seasons are backwards and ours are just right.  And your toilet flushes in the reverse (wrong) direction.  How can you go on living?

The bit of knowledge I do have would suggest it should go straight down, but as never been to the equator have no proof.\n\nThese are some comments I have found:\nIt is scientifically proven it will go directly down without spinning unless you are just a bit over to one side of the equator.\n\nThe way your toilet flushes is completely random.\n\nMichigan University teamed up with Victoria University (In Wellington) to test it. They got a really big tank, drilled a hole in it, filled it up and watched the way the water spun as it drained. It was a fifty-fifty split in both places.\n\nMy science teacher went to the equator and did it and it said it went straight down when PERFECTLY on thr equator.

side arm and always make sure it is in the direction you are going or you'll look like an ass

Mirrors don't actually reverse anything.  When you face someone or something, they have to turn around so that you can see them.  A mirror doesn't have this limitation.  You can see something without turning around to do it.  Of course, this is backwards from what you usually see.  In order to see the front of something, you could turn it around vertically instead of horizontally.  In that case, you could maintain left and right, but you would be confused up and down.

They don't reverse light they bounce it back the same way it enters. Your left side in the mirror is on the left side of the mirror and your right is on the right. A person facing you is reversed because they are turned in the opposite direction.

No, you've got it backwards, it flushes counter-clockwiswe above the equator, and clockwise below. Right on the equator should flush counter-clockwise as well.

reality (the first answerer) is mostly correct, but it's more of a phychological effect than an optical illusion. When you look in the mirror and raise your right hand, it looks like "the guy in the mirror" is raising his left hand. Because of this, you perceive the mirror to be flipping left and right. But all the light is just being reflected directly back. If you hold writing up to the mirror, it looks backwards left to right. If you hold it vertically, it looks backwards top to bottom. There is no left-right top-bottom asymmetry. Think about it for awhile and you will realize that a mirror doesn't "flip" anything, it's all in your mind.

We usually take the one urinal most distant from an occupied one. And no we don't line up behind eachother we just wait around until one is available. \nIf urinals are not available, we generally kick every stall door really hard until one is flung open empty and use that. Which helps the guy taking a dump take a much faster one. lol\n\nHere's a hilarious little game that explains the dynamics:\nhttp://gamescene.com/The_Urinal_Game_game.html

The correct position is similar to the way right handed people hold it, but almost all left handed people bend their fingers so they face their belly instead of out like right handed people because their teachers didn't know how to show them ( This may be an old stereotype, I don't know but when I was young fingers faced the belly).  In any case, if you are a natural leftie do what feels natural to you and don't listen to anybody then you won't have problems.\nI was forced out of being a leftie.  My son is ambidextrous; he was a leftie, but his piano teacher asked if she could make him use his right hand.  I told her she couldn't make him, but wouldn't mind her letting him use both hands.  My baby seems to use both hands too.  My son uses both hands with his fingers facing out not towards his belly like most right handed people.

IT appears backwards becuase when you are running forward with the flag, this is the way it appears. It is placed on the uniform this way as to remind the soldier to always move forward.

You are supposed to lie on your right side as it corresponds with the direction your stomach contents flow (bottom part of stomach is on right side and gravity helps rush it through).  Might sound a bit gross, but it really works!  Other really quick fix for general stomach aches and pains is Tums....AMAZING!  ; )

It's only 'backwards' on the right shoulder.  Picture an American flag being held by the soldier advancing, the wind blowing it back, streaming behind him, now picture what the flag would look like from his left...that's the 'forward flag' on that shoulder, the representation of a flag that you're used to...now picture from the right shoulder, it's still streaming back, as the soldier advances to victory, but it 'looks backward' as you don't see the stationary flag displayed that way.

The short answer is that toilets flush to the shape of the toilet - not because of northern or southern hemisphere location\n\nThe longer answer is that in theory it is possible that the "Coriolis effect" will change the the rotation of the flush. The Wikipedia link below has a detailed analysis. It can be abbreviated to "it's possible in an exact, scientific, controlled environment"

it's not reversed.  take your hand and press it up to the mirror.  see how your fingers line up exactly with the fingers in the mirror?  take both hands and press them up to the mirror.  now your right hand lines up with the mirror hand that is on your right, and your left hand lines up with the mirror hand that is on your left.\n\nall kosher, right?  nothing's reversed.\n\nthe point is that "right" and "left" are relative directions and mean different things depending on whether you are looking at someone from the front or the back.

neck rolls...clockwise, and then counterclockwise, and maybe some heat if needed! or try flez-all or icy hot!
