That's an oversimplification of both hands, and when you word it like that, almost everybody will say left, because conformity sounds bad and denial of pleasure sounds bad. You kinda left out that the left hand path is supposed to imply SATAN and the right hand path is supposed to imply JESUS. You either follow Jesus or yourself, and when you follow yourself, you do Satan's work.

I'm on the left.

I love how neither of these relate to the Buddhist concept of the Middle Path.  Thinking of all 3 at once is hilarious, and makes it sound like Buddha is the referee between Jesus and Satan, or he's the Catwoman between Batman and the Joker.
