Writing in cursive

So it occurred to me when i was sigining a receipt and realized that most of my name probably isnt even the right letters. who still writes in cursive? is it just an ancient form of writing now?

 
i know a lot of people that write in cursive. i print my words though, i find it looked neater than my cursive and i can write pretty damn fast
 
i use cursive with certain letters when im in a hurry i think. but other then tat i wonder if they still teach it in elementary school.
 
I remeber them telling me in elementry school that once we got to highschool thats all we would use. All the time wasted trying to learn a useless skill.
 
i write really fast, slurring some letters together, so it sortof looks like cursive. Like "re" or "le" "ti" they all get linked the fuck up.
 
Yeah, I remember how to do it, but I don't really use it that much at all. Only for my sig, and even that's gotten to a point where most of the letters aren't even legible.
 
I write in some find of fucked up mix of cursive and printing. It causes most of my teachers to talk to me about it, but it allows me to write dam fast, which is good when I have a hour to write a 6 page essay
 
If you can write well in cursive, you can write nearly twice as fast as someone doing print. I use cursive for everything, in fact people who wrote the SAT writing portion in cursive on average got a higher score than those written in print.

There are two types of cursive, note cursive (which is not legible to anyone except the person who wrote it) or slow cursive (which takes longer but gives your paper a better appearance than print).
 
i was never really good at cursive, it just seemed so unnatural to me, and the letters always looked like a 2 year old wrote it, so as soon as they stopped forcing you to write in cursive, i switched back and now people can actually read my writing
 
haha yea i had to sign my name on one of those virtual things which makes it even harder for my liscense...and i got it in the mail yesterday and its pretty messed up
 
I write in cursive when taking notes becuase it allows me to capture more of the lecture being given. When I am not in a rush I just print.

Cursive is definitely starting to become a lost art.
 
I realized I'd forgotten most of my cursive when we had to write in it on the SAT. It took me about 10 minutes to write that paragraph.
 
ya same. i write really fast and my letters are connected but they have the structure of plain writing. and sometimes ill stop the linkage in the middle of the word
 
there was no writing section when i took the sat. the only cursive that is worthwhile is the cursive comprised of men with instruments. i love that band.
 
i write in cursive when im taking notes usually. I always end up slurring my letters together when i write normal so cursive was easier to read. If you do it a lot it becomes so much easier
 
mine is like half n half. i like slur my letters together. like if i have l-e ill loop them and mostly i do cursive fs if htey loop well into the next letter. i duno its weird
 
When I write in cursive I end up getting all jittery for some reason and add in extra scribbles and bumps, so when I write out "this is so fun", for example, it ends out reading:

thiis iis sa fum
 
all my teachers were like ohh you need to know this, it makeds you write faster. it took me like 2 hrs just to write the front of one page so i stopped doing that...even if igot 2 pts off
