Thats what i was thinking too.

i think 'cool' or 'good' handwriting is a lost art now. I try to have nifty handwriting, but i write more than i type. i dont think i would classify mine as "girly" though

I have been told that a person having a seizure could write better than me. Its pretty rough but I can read it and nobody ever wants to copy my notes.

I always get the rhetorical question, "Are you a doctor?", because my handwriting is analogous to the path of a penguin being chased by a killer whale; completely erratic. I type extremely fast, so I generally have little patience with handwriting.

I actually have REALLY NICE handwriting (for a left-handed guy) but I can't draw worth crap.

Very legible, all caps.

I always write in cursive and not well at that. I have no patience for writing since I've learned to type well. My printing is even less legible than my cursive. It's really bad.

I am a Technical Illustrator for a living. So when i was in school I had to learn how to letter correctly. So more or less I have hand writing that looks like Architectural style lettering. All caps, no cursive.

Handwriting, gave it up in 4th grade, so that makes it roughly... 11 yrs ago. It sucked, never got higher than a check minus for a grade, whatever that meant, in writing.

People might think I'm a doctor if they try to read my handwriting. At least I can read it. In theory it was my own form of copy protection... ;)

My typewriting is fantastic though. Especially now that 'Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at an Elingsh uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht frist and lsat ltteer is at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae we do not raed ervey lteter by it slef but the wrod as a wlohe.'
