All of it is lies. Lies and deceit. Practice up your cursive kiddies! Once you get out of grade ___, all you'll be writing is in cursive! Oh and then how about college? Lots of cursive there, too! Oh, and the real world? Yeah, everybody wants you to write in cursive.

lol the man raped you

XD


its so true

This. After learning cursive I never stopped using it until this year (my junior year of high school) when I realized that half the god damned time I couldn't read my own writing since I was prone to making so many mistakes because of cursive and I'd have little scribble marks all over the page. Plus, only a select few could comprehend my notes.

It me about a week or so but I've made the switch back to print and I've been cursive free for weeks now.

I'm not sure I remember how to write in full cursive.

I can't even right in cursive anymore. Hell, I sign my name so much my signature has degraded into a big J and squiggles then a big M and squiggles...

I can't print without serious effort. I like the joined up handwriting.

I remember right before 3rd grade started I was freaking out that I should know cursive, then we learned it the first week.

My handwriting sucks anyways.

Yeah I can sign my first name fine, then i do a G and scribbles. Cursive in school? Forget it. I'm print all the way.

I have 4 years of marvellous notes that trickle every which way over the page. Amazingly I understood them and the shorthand code I developed at the time. Couldn't understand a word of it now right enough but I don't really want to.

I learned cursive in second grade, I think, and never used it after that.

I forgot how to right ages ago. It was annoying as hell to have to do it during the SATs.

I renounced cursive long ago.. and generally dislike people who use it.

I sucked at writing in cursive then and I suck at writing in cursive now.

EDIT: That's why my signature looks like "B_____ H_____". I just write the first letter and then shoot a line after it.

My print and cursive have fused so my many of my letters are joined but it looks like print.

I can't seem to keep a consistent signature so maybe I will try the line thing.

Cursive was easier and faster for me.

writing out that statement on the SATs sucked

This man speaks the truth. I stopped writing in cursive in 4th grade, and never went back. I can barely do my name.

as much as you hate writing in cursive, it *is* the way many professional people write...america doesn't appreciate the art of writing nearly as much as it should

T*scribble* C*scribble* here

its way more work to print, which ive never done. when i printed it was kind of a half cursive hybrid deal. For some reason i thought this would be about the band.

Cursive is the way to go - I get much better flow with it, which is good, cause oftentimes in longhand my thoughts go way faster than my hand. I've got no damn time to pick the pen up off the page.

without cursive, I would not have writing. This is because I write in cursive AND print. Like a mixture of it. and it's very Pretty.

Awesome.

who? I could have sworn that most ANSI standard fonts were of the sans serif and single stroke gothic variety, I dont believe you are going to find alot of legal or technical documents written up in cursive

I did this a while ago.



Sometimes I write a lot messier than that and more often better. Sometimes I write completely differently though.

My hand writing is so atrocious that every time I write something somewhere in china a baby panda dies. To make things worse I can't write in print because it's too slow for me. We need mind-controlled nanorobots to do our writing for us.

i would like to simply use a keyboard. >_>

I haven't used cursive since second grade when I first learned it. Even if the assignment had to be in cursive, it'd be in print. Fight the system.

I appreciate art in writing as in the writing, now how it is written. I couldn't care less. Shit, when it comes to writing something long, I'd prefer so very much to just be able to type it. When you can type like 120+ WPM, writing seems so ineffecient.

*thought you were talking about the band for a second*

I usually write in "cursive" in that all of my letters are linked together, but it doesn't look much like what I had to learn in 3rd grade.

I thought that when I first clicked too, and I was going to say "wrong board" along with everyone else, until I read it. Good thing I actually DID read it...I didn't originally plan to.

jajaja.

I write in cursive yet didn't know what it was until I googled it!

Yeah I was told by my Hitler Youth instructors that you will be required to write in cursive in high school and college. Yeah I get points taken off for writing in cursive now.

I had to go look it up too the first time someone mentioned it.

I hate cursive. Other than my signature which varies from beautiful to P*siggily line*, I never use it. I can barely read it most of the time, too. Hate.

Actually I write in it all the time.

I haven't used cursive since 7th grade. I still know how. Just in case.

that's about how mine is, but I write so damn small no one can read it anyways.

I didn't even know you could forget how to write in cursive. I haven't needed to or really used it in a long time, but I could still write anything in it. Kinda like a muscle memory thing.

I'll take this one step further. I don't use lower case letters. In terms of actual handwriting, I haven't used them in years.

I'm all capslock, all the time.

I wrote in cursive on and off throughout high school. It looked awful, and even I could barely read it sometimes. Now I write in block letters all the time.


That too.

i don't like cursive. my handwriting is really messy, too. typing is fine though.

I still write my name in cursive when I sign.

I only write in cursive.

I can do my name in cursive but it looks like shit. Otherwise, fuck it.

I writting is a combination of handwritting and printing. I can print, but when i try to write, its like printing thats connected together. It looks pretty though. Girly pretty. Far from elegant.



My signature is handwritten very nicely though. It looks identical to my moms, except mine is DJacula and her's is CJacula. She pointing out there striking similarity the other day at the bank.
