i tell you, i notice it most when writing in cursive for checks and stuff.
i can't string the letters beautifully together like i used to.
the age of the keyboard further destroys civilization imo.
anybody else here?
I know, right?
I can't even remember how to right cursive???
i think it was military writing; MSLs, forms, etc so when I went to college everything was block chickenscratch and no kan cursive no moa
handwriting sucked anyway, but worse now :)
when i was a kid and living with my g-parents, my granma made me sit in the kitchen practicing my penmanship. my fuktard brother had nice handwriting and got to watch tv......but he was so stupid! I fukkin missed my CHiPs episodes MUTHAFAKA!!!
flashbacks to jumping dirtpiles and powersliding schwinn bicycle with banana seat while imagining police siren wailing
i also never learned to type, hunt&peck in the mil and later in college as a whaaaat.......journalism/poli sci-minor LMAO i wrote my ass off with h&p and chikenscratch
meatrokket - I know, right?
goddamn you
KyokushinCatch - nope. back when I was in school (god do I feel old saying that), penmanship was stressed. even though I mostly print when writing today, cursive penmanship's still there.
i swear i thought the same thing, so i took a piece of paper and started to write a letter.
hell if the letters weren't flowing together like they used to. it was sorta a print/cursive atrocity.
game over
meatrokket - I know, right?
oh brutha
chef kwon do -meatrokket - I know, right?
oh brutha
exactly, RIGHT? (fuck)
Yah, no?
Honolii - Yah, no?
haven't heard that since growing up on kauai no?
the "yah no" term is always used when somebody is correcting you.
dad: son you putting the tent fitting the wrong way
son looks at the fitting for couple seconds
son: laughs and looks at dad and givem the "yah no" i knew dat. lol
meatrokket - I know, right?
LOL!
My handwriting has always been attrocious as well as my spelling.
Interweb speak and email/texting has not helped that.
my handwriting always sucked.
but it got worse when I was in college and I used to scribble a couple pages of notes per class.
I learned to write fast, but the problem was trying to read it later
i remember reading an article not too long ago saying cursive is becoming a dying alphabet, it seems strictly for signiature purposes only.....
in fact lets take it further, when my dad was in school they had penmenship, we kinda just scratched it when i was in elementary, there wasnt much emphasis on legible handwriting
Sennin -
I no write......apparently so doesn't he ^^^
It could be because the age of the keyboard or maybe its just your age. My grandpa has pretty bad hand writing too.
I always got terrible grades in writing, but I figure, hell I can type pretty damn fast and can draw pretty much anything on AutoCAD so why do I have to write nice?
i remember going into the 2nd grade i forgot how to write.
everyone else were writing small single line characters while i was still doing double space.
you know the "brown paper" writing?
