1. Good Penmanship is becoming a lost art

Like paying with cash and writing checks to pay bills and then balancing a checkbook. The ultimate old school.

However fuck you donald trump in any form or language is much appreciated.

5. Do you ever wonder

how the kids that haven't been taught cursive, ........sign a check or legal document??????

Of course the bank's don't look at the signature on the checks anymore..........a year ago, I signed a check Mickey Mouse and it went through, no problem...............

6. I've been reading

Where the lack of cursive knowledge may be a problem or may be overcome with techno whizbangery. A persons signature should mean more than a spam text or email. I may be overfretting but online stuff makes me paranoid.

7. Doesn't matter how you write your signature--- cursive, printed in big block letters---

back when illiteracy was more widespread, they just "made their mark"...

Signing a check is about the only thing I would ever use cursive for, now,
but I haven't even done that in a few years--- use a debit card,
and pay bills online to save the postage, which is now getting really expensive for just a letter...
(but "forever" First Class stamps are really cool--- I still have half a book which I bought about five years ago!)


With everyone using computers and printing things out,
and sending emails and texts, there isn't much point in cursive--
although if you haven't learned it, it might be difficult
to read some historical documents or old family letters.....

8. Don't you have to sign your ballot?

Or sign in to get one? Our ballots are all mail-in, and they match the signatures.

[Jack Valentino]

9. Oh yeah--- forgot about that one!

I always worry about that one, because I made an effort to be more legible,
and have to remember that every time I sign one of those,
or it might appear not to match.... lol

10. Great info JV

I think all 70+ Million of us should go to the Post Office and buy a roll of forever self stick stamps. It would flood the USPS with revenue and serve to shut DeJoy's mouth forever about the USPS going broke.......He sure has screwed things up starting with the pre 2016 election...........

Of course his plan is to Bankrupt the USPS, so FedEx and UPS can take over, and more importantly obliterate on of the largest unions in the U.S.

12. Article I Section 8 Claus 7

The postal system is part of our constitution.

But tfg doesn't think he has to uphold it.

13. When signing at election, the judge say young folks print.

2. Even harder with spray paint!

3. Is that . . . cursive writing?

*GASP*

So old school!

4. I'm on the dysgraphia spectrum.

Should have been a doctor.

11. Beautiful penmanship.

I’d guess somebody went to Catholic school.
