MeteorRise Canada611 Posts September 06 2011 01:46 GMT #101 My writing is god awful. When I was younger people would make fun of me for writing like a scrub. =< Amazingly SOME teachers can read it, but it's pretty damn bad.

Jesushooves Canada553 Posts September 06 2011 01:51 GMT #103 I have awful handwriting, it has been made fun of by other students (all in light humor though). I think the reason for most tl'ers having worse handwriting, or thinking our handwriting is worse, is because it hasn't been forced as much as previous generations to us young guns . I think I have way above average WPM, at least compared to older people xD. So I guess it all works out :D

Heyoka Katowice25012 Posts September 06 2011 01:53 GMT #104 I clicked better than average on accident, my handwriting is absolutely unreadable to anyone but me (and even then I'm not at 100% success rate of knowing what my old notes say).

Equinox_kr United States7395 Posts September 06 2011 01:55 GMT #105 When I write normally, it's average. Other people say it's above average, although I seriously doubt it. Funnily enough I look up to people with semi-readable scribbles. They all have a certain charm to them that most Asian robot handwriting doesn't.

Mine is awful, I've had papers given back to me because they weren't legible enough to grade -_- There are some days it takes me a few minutes to even understand stuff I wrote before, gg

N.geNuity United States5111 Posts September 06 2011 01:59 GMT #108 yeah, I'm having difficulty reading my own stuff nowadays. I write in cursive, so I guess that's part of the problem. If I wrote in print, it's okay maybe--I think it looks like a first grader's, but it is more readable. Every teacher I've ever had said I had bad handwriting, as well as TA's in university. The worst was my last year in high school, where my english teacher said I had worse handwriting than a guy who graduated 2 years ahead of me. The other guy's handwriting was chicken scratch. It was literally only horizontal lines. He didn't even finish words it was so bad. the last 3 letters of any word longer than like 5 letters was just an amorphous line. So, I guess when teachers say it's the worst they've ever seen, it's pretty bad.

K3Nyy United States1961 Posts September 06 2011 02:00 GMT #109 A lot of people say my handwriting is very neat. Actually a lot of teachers have pointed out my handwriting in class and made me help them write their work for them. ><" I don't think my handwriting is that good though, I see a lot of crooked lines. =x

TheToaster United States280 Posts September 06 2011 02:01 GMT #110 I believe the current bias on handwriting is that women tend to have the more readable and neater handwriting. But I've had several girls tell me that they like my handwriting style compared to other males, and sometimes their own. Self criticism says it's very violent and scratchy in nature. Very fast movements, sometimes separated by pauses and other times weaved together in completely unnecessary spots. For example, my T's will look like X's because I don't pick up my pen when I cross the T's stem. My E's (lower case) look like a theta symbol "θ". On top of these, as well as unmentioned scrutiny, letters will heavily vary throughout an entire essay. One D at the beginning will start looking like a 9 near the end. The way I hold my utensils has also been pointed out several times. I make an upside down U-shape with my hand while I'm writing. Others say this form will hurt their wrists if they try to mimic it. But I think it's my thinking process that makes it look favorable. A sentence or even half a sentence will materialize into my mind, I will scribble it down as fast as possible if it's a good idea, then sit there doing nothing until the next idea. The result is my papers look like they are fully thought out before written, then madly thrown down onto paper before the entire idea of the paper is forgotten. Brain capacity +1.

Valestrum United States246 Posts September 06 2011 02:03 GMT #111 I used to have very good handwriting and then came high school where I needed to write at 4000 wpm in order to get all the notes the teachers put up and I seemed to have sacrificed all handwriting neatness above just average for speed.

prOxi.swAMi Australia3091 Posts September 06 2011 02:04 GMT #112 Absolute turds. I used to have fuckin sick handwriting. It all went down hill as soon as I discovered battle.net

Hobosnipe Canada13 Posts September 06 2011 02:05 GMT #113 My hand writing is terrible, sometimes I can't tell what I just wrote.

Uncultured United States1340 Posts September 06 2011 02:05 GMT #114 I was going to say below average, but after seeing poll resuls it's obviously just Average.

Asshat 593 Posts September 06 2011 02:07 GMT #115 My cursive handwriting isn't pretty but it's perfectly readable to anyone, my ß looks particularly terrible and I don't differentiate between upper and lower case Ks.

Enki United States2548 Posts September 06 2011 02:08 GMT #116 Probably below average, I rarely write that much shit though, so yeah, cant be good at something you never do T_T I did have pretty good handwriting in like high school though, rofl.

atrocity3010 70 Posts September 06 2011 02:10 GMT #117 Pretty bad, it looks like it was written by a 5th grader. My "signature" is even worse, it's literally just two squiggles.

ravenKRaz United States580 Posts September 06 2011 02:10 GMT #118 My handwriting is atrocious.. it's usually very hard for even me to read what i wrote. It's probably due to the fact that i write extremely fast and i don't really give a shit about writing anyway

Glowinglight United States76 Posts September 06 2011 02:10 GMT #119 My hand writing is very neat, I used to have a habit of writing very small, but have gotten out of it. My cursive is terrible though.

susySquark United States1692 Posts September 06 2011 02:11 GMT #120 I have nice cursive, but fairly standard messy printing/normal writing. Writing in cursive just automatically puts me in neat-anal-arty mode.
