Poll: Perhaps the most important question given that it's almost 2017

I do this too ( a 7 with a bar ) due to working for a German Company they all do it. I also have a habit of using a comma for a decimal point ( 1,5 instead of 1.5 ).

The first habit is legit. The second habit informs me that you are a communist at best, a Cylon at worst.

You don't write your 5 in two strokes?

Of course I don't. WTF would anyone do that? Ain't nobody got time for that!

 

[zinfamous]

I've never even imagined writing it a different way. How do you do it?

I write my 5s like I write my S's. ...which is probably why even I can't distinguish them.

 

[ImpulsE69]

Only when I'm writing my phone number in the snow with my pee.

 

[PliotronX]

I normally don't but I could see the value of the bar because a 1 can end up looking like a 7 in handwriting. For this reason I will slash zeroes so they arent mistaken for O.

 

[thebestMAX]

No but it does make sense to put a slash through zeros.

 

[Murloc]

I bar 7 and Z because it's normal in my country and it has a obvious benefit, since when I write stuff fast and badly like I do the 1 and the 7 can look the same.

I also do the closed 4 but not all people do this here.
If you round it too much it can resemble a 9 but for me doing the sharp corners when doing it closed is easier.

LOL. That is how the Germans do it... Weird I know.

 

[FeuerFrei]

Yea, verily, my sevens are barred.
At one time I slashed my zeros, but have since ceased.

I just do it to add panache.

Sevens and Zeds man, absolutely.

Of course I don't. WTF would anyone do that? Ain't nobody got time for that!

I do!
I guess it's the way i learned it. That's the way i've always done it :shrug:

 

[Exterous]

No. Different strokes for different folks I suppose but that's a waste of motion.

Exactly! People are so wasteful these days - if everyone just worked to cut down on their number footprint the environment would be a much better place

 

[Arcadio]

I write the bar through the 7. I learned it that way back in Colombia.

 

[KeithTalent]

Only sometimes. I'm not married to it.

But you say zed, so... Which are you?
