Does anyone here have bad handwriting?

Post » Wed Aug 28, 2013 6:55 pm

I do, and I'm proud. :D

As long as my writing is eligible and gets to the point I could care less about penmanship. I've never been scolded for it nor have I been bothered about it.

Not if I take my time, but seldom is that viable when taking notes in class.

Most of the time I try my best to write neatly which makes me rather slow at writing. Even then though does it still look like a mess. :confused:

Are you kidding? My handwriting looks like the scribble of a drunk Chinese chicken with a bad case of Epilepsy.

... with the hiccups.

Me. It gets worse the slower I write. It's easily readable, just REALLY bad quality.

Yes. In my exams if I ever got a paper recalled I couldn't read it. Lol.
Apparently especially strange cause I'm female :( oh the longing I feel when I gaze upon nice handwriting...

I can be neat if I go real slow. But who has the time; I'm already an exceptionally slow writer, the only way I can keep up is to scribble everything.
I make up for it in typing though :D

yeah, my penmanship is atrocious..


I had to fill out some employee review reports for my boss at work one day, my boss came over to my desk

"I have no idea who Bert is..."
"what.. ohh, thats Bill!"
"...and Andrew Wilson? Andrews last name is Power..."
"no, thats Amanda Walton"
"... okay, next time just type it up for me and print it out..."
"Ahh, then I can't use my over priced stationary.."

What would your writing be eligible for? Nominations that it is legible?

:P

Oh yes, terrible handwriting. I've read unsubstantiated rumors that more creative types write faster to keep up with their ideas, hence worse handwriting... That's my excuse at least. :tongue:

I am pretty sure mine would be total crap because I haven't hand writen anything other than my name in a very long time.

Mine varies to Excellent to doctor... Not sure why it varies as I've remember reading or hearing somewhere that people tend to have a steady form.

My handwriting is pretty good, unless I'm taking notes during lectures, then it becomes doctor level.

I used to fill out order slips at my last job, when people would ask what it says I would reply "it says I should have been a doctor" :P

But my signature for artwork is neat :P

:laugh:

Sometimes I quite like my handwriting, but other times I hate it. I definitely have "bad handwriting days".

http://christinehedley.com/images/bits/handwriting.png is a random example, except for the bits that say "vegetable kebabs", "nariyal chicken" and "pilao rice" which is my girlfriend's writing. She claims to have better handwriting than me, but I think her handwriting svcks. And, yes, we attempt to use the same order for the Indian even when we want different stuff because we're too lazy to write it out again.

My handwriting is so bad that sometimes I have trouble reading it. And it always has been, despite numerous attempts to improve it. I used to have to go to a clinic because of it, something to do with my hands.

http://i.imgur.com/ExAXuQL.jpg For fun and reminiscent of the handwriting sample thread of 2008.

I can generally read the lecture notes, but I just make sure to put letters with downstrokes and swoops in the correct places.

My printing is fine. I haven't regularly used cursive since 1971. Please don't ask me to use it. I forget how half the letters are done.

Chicken scratch is an apt description of my handwriting.

Wasn't trying to be neat, I just needed a quick guide to some keybindings.

I just noticed I can't spell. :(

I write in Comic Sans.

"This is my lecture handwriting, when I don't have my computer"? That took longer to figure out than I'm comfortable admitting.
