here are some pangrams if, like me, you're too dumb to think of a sentence to write:

  • the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
  • jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz
  • amazingly few discotheques provide jukeboxes
  • brawny gods just flocked up to quiz and vex him
  • quick movement of the enemy will jeopardize six gunboats
  • pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs



cursive is dumb.

I think most people have really terrible penmanship, yours doesn't seem bad by that comparison.

This is my hand writing. I write in perfect Arial.

You should try having handwriting as perfect as mine some day. :colbert:

If you look closely you can see on the other side of the page where I hosed up the very first letter and had to flip the page to start over

I think we can safely add dysgraphia to the list of things a higher number than usual of goons seems to have.

As a group, we probably have an overrepresentation of people who do all their writing on keyboards. There's probably a correlation.

To be fair, many of us have consumables that can only be paid for by check, so we have to write six, seven times a month or so.

Yeah, my brother has legitimate dysgraphia. I just have poo poo handwriting because proper penmanship is and has always been way down there on the list of things I care to learn.

why did you write anymore as two words? Hell, why do you take your pen off the paper and start a new letter when on the same word?

I didn't, there's no space between them. Note that all of my spaces are deliberate. I often only write three or four letters at a time before starting the next three or four letters. It helps with spacing and keeps the letters from bunching up or getting crooked or slanted on longer words, by keeping you from flexing your wrist too far in one direction. Sometimes it works where they link and you can't tell, and sometimes it doesn't. The more loopy letters I use, the more likely it is that I paused after each one.

Have you ever had the realization that you can move your whole hand across the page as you write?

Your handwriting is okay for the most part and way cleaner than mine but it kinda bothers me that every time you write a lowercase a that isn't the first letter of a word you just kinda put a dot and that's it

I can, but then there's inconsistent pressure and the letters start getting bunched up, rushed and jumbled. Unless you're an artsy type or practiced professional calligrapher, there's no reason to write long words as a single stroke.



(I screwed some of this up because I was rushing a bit :downs: )
