I wonder how many people still write things by hand regularly, and what they use it for. I almost never write anything by hand and as a result my hand writing looks like that of a child. I was asked to write a personal note in a children's bible I bought my godson for his birthday and it was very embarrassing. When I was a kid, old people in my family had very elegant and sophisticated handwriting styles. It made me realize how much of civilization has been lost already. We may be only 1-2 generations away from complete full blown illiteracy

Yes. My cursive is unreadable (is that a word?) so printing it is.

I've been slacking lately but I write in my training journal. I tried a number of journal apps but I couldn't journal the way I wanted to when doing weird supersets or whatever. Style is ugly and I can hardly make out what I wrote later but it sort of works if I make an effort to write legibly :D

Yes, I try to write something longhand a few times a week. Like everything, if you don't practice, you lose it. My cursive isn't overly flowery, but neat and readable, I actually have a worse time writing in print.

Ask Royalty if you can see his collection of handwriting samples.  It's fap material for him.

I still use it at this for  my notes at work before I type it up.  It looks like shit now and sometimes can't even read my own writing.

I’ve always been a bit jealous of people with normal handwriting as mine has been poor since my youth.

Now it looks like I’ve been drinking it is so bad.

I also type slowly though too.

My wife handles most of that for my business and personal life luckily.
