This is true for all the left-hand threads (except Press and Beep Me, natch), and definitely deserves to be mentioned.
Call me a dummy but -- aren't they right-hand threads? That is where they show up on my screen.
Oh my god, is my screen backwards??
It's their other left hand.
It's the board's left, when it's looking out at you.
Um, yeah. Those threads. On the side. That one.--->
Stage left.
Still kinda looks right to me...

Yes, or House Right.
I always think of them as the Eastern threads.
They're the conservative threads.
I never could keep house directions straight. Stage, I was fine. But house I could never remember. Though, working from the spot booth, you'd think I wouldn't have a problem.

Heh, yeah... it took me a while to get used to it, but both of them are relative to the direction you'd face if you were there - as stage direction is relative to being onstage facing the audience, audience direction is relative to being in the audience, facing the stage. Thus, if you're in the booth, audience right is your right.
