do you write in cursive?

[marquee]

I remember my grade school teachers spending so much time teaching us how to write in cursive. I dontknow anyone that actually still uses it.

Do they still teach it? Why bother? does anyone use it?

 

[Ryan]

I do

 

[Ticks]

i do not use it because no one can read my cursive

edit - POLL!!

 

[Anubis]

last time i did was in like 7th grade, never did in HS and in college everything is typed

 

[RaynorWolfcastle]

yep, I write in cursive. Actually, I use some sort of semi-cursive, it's faster than writing block letters for me.

Edit: I should add, that anything of importance I hand in typed anyways, so my handwriting is usually used in notes. This is good because my handwriting leaves something to be desired.

so you're still using it?

 

[SWScorch]

no. Some of my letters tend to flow together, but it's still print, not cursive. I hate writing cursive as it takes too long, and I hate reading cursive.

 

[GroundZero]

i write in san scrit and pictographs

 

[Bulk Beef]

I print in all caps (big caps and little caps). Somebody told me that was a sign of some psychological disorder, so I told them to fvck off and mind their own business.

It's an archaic waste. I was always beleagured in school because my script was so hard to read. The second they started allowing me to go back to print, I did. Although most everything was typed by then.

thats my view of it too. i might 'link' a couple letters together in cursive, but overall its still print.

same here. more like a shorthand. its kind of cursive mixed with printing for optimized speed and legibility. achieves great effeciency for me. although, its more printing, with a little bit a cursive mixed in.

 

[Chunkee]

i am so messed up that i do both, even with in one word or sentence...it is crazy and always has been that way....guess its best that i type things

Smart people write in cursive. It's what separates us from the neanderthals.
