I've dyed my hair and I've used a face mask. I've driven my husband's auto once to the shops and it felt odd because I didn't know what to do with my left hand. Everything else on your list I agree with.

Use the left hand to hold the stubby

Agreed about autos. It feels super weird not having to shift. Not an issue on a highway, but around town I stomp the floor and grab air left. Even worse if the indicator switch is on the other side.

Yes. You put your hand down on the gear stick and go no, put your hand back on the wheel, hear the motor revs so you put hand back down on the gear stick. It ends up a weird little game while your foot's trying to find an imaginary pedal.
