How neat is your handwriting?
« on: July 26, 2011, 05:59:32 PM »
Random question, but who knows, maybe we'll find some correlation between good bot-building and neatness of handwriting?

My writing isn't what it used to be since I write faster nowadays, but it's passable and easy to read. The letters are a bit thin and thinly spaced out though.

I have terrible handwriting.
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Mines is legible, but quite scrawly. There's not much spacing between words/letters either, but at least you can read it. I have trouble reading very good cursive script.

One thing I do, is I write adjacent f's and t's with one line going through both of them. Anyone else do this?

Nah.

More writing shenanigans:

  • Do you write 7's with a horizontal line going through the middle?
  • Do you hook your t's at the bottom?
  • Do you dot your i's with hearts?
  • Do you write your 1's as a straight line, with a hook at the top, or with the hook and the horizontal line at the bottom?
  • Do you write your commas/quotation marks as straight lines or curves?
  • Do you write your a's as the a's in the GTM font or as circles with a vertical line sticking out of the bottom right?
  • Do you draw the horizontal lines in t's and f's/dots in i's and j's while writing the letters or after you're done the sentence?
  • Do you write w's as two v's or two u's?
  • Do you write capital I's with the serifs at the top and bottom or without?

For me...

  • Do you write 7's with a horizontal line going through the middle? No
  • Do you hook your t's at the bottom? No
  • Do you dot your i's with hearts? Yes...no
  • Do you write your 1's as a straight line, with a hook at the top, or with the hook and the horizontal line at the bottom? Either with the hook or just as a line.
  • Do you write your commas/quotation marks as straight lines or curves? Commas straight, quotation marks as curves.
  • Do you write your a's as the a's in the GTM font or as circles with a vertical line sticking out of the bottom right? Circular with a line sticking out.
  • Do you draw the horizontal lines in t's and f's/dots in i's and j's while writing the letters or after you're done the sentence? While I'm writing them.
  • Do you write w's as two v's or two u's? Two v's.
  • Do you write capital I's with the serifs at the top and bottom or without? With serifs.

Mine's completely illegible, even to me. It's very scrawly.

Words cannot describe how bad it is....

so here's a picture of it

    Do you write your commas/quotation marks as straight lines or curves? Mixture of both
    Do you write your a's as the a's in the GTM font or as circles with a vertical line sticking out of the bottom right? line at the bottom
    Do you draw the horizontal lines in t's and f's/dots in i's and j's while writing the letters or after you're done the sentence? When i'm done with the word
    Do you write w's as two v's or two u's? Two u's because I write rather quickly
    Do you write capital I's with the serifs at the top and bottom or without? I don't do my I's anything like that when I write

I'm probably going to a low score on this test:

More writing shenanigans:

  • Do you write 7's with a horizontal line going through the middle? no.
  • Do you hook your t's at the bottom? no.
  • Do you dot your i's with hearts? What? no.
  • Do you write your 1's as a straight line, with a hook at the top, or with the hook and the horizontal line at the bottom? Usually option a, but occasionally option c if there's a chacne that I'll get it confused with an I or a lowercase l.
  • Do you write your commas/quotation marks as straight lines or curves? Commas curvy, quotations as straight diagonal lines
  • Do you write your a's as the a's in the GTM font or as circles with a vertical line sticking out of the bottom right? the second option, the lazy one.
  • Do you draw the horizontal lines in t's and f's/dots in i's and j's while writing the letters or after you're done the sentence? As I go
  • Do you write w's as two v's or two u's? Two v's
  • Do you write capital I's with the serifs at the top and bottom or without? Only if there's a chance that I'll get it confused with a 1 or a lowercase l.

Only a moron from a 3rd world broke dick country does that....AND crooks /terrorist!

When somebody is trying to sell me something and they cross their 7's I don't buy it and cuss them for being stupid!

Not long ago I wanted to buy a trailer, and the deal was made......UNTIL I saw the serial number welded into the tongue had the 7 crossed.....I cussed them for being stupid and did not buy it!

My handwriting on paper, if I do it slowly enough, is like the Arial font but with no dots on the "i"s (I'm a lazy sh*t)

If I go fast, it begins to slant, but I lose very little quality
