Well. Well! We can still salvage this. We’ll make a new word, called “handwritting.” Like hand + wristing, but without the ess.

A smaller version of armwrestling? Or perhaps some type of embroidery?

I can’t think of anyone except Billah’s Wife who is equal to this task.

What’s goin on girlfriends. ‘Writting’ is already established as a slang word fer cooter stimulation, so handwritting means rubbin yer cooter. I ain’t been able ter reach my own cooter fer ages, and last time I could I had ter dip my hand in bleach ter git rid uh the stank. Ever heard uh ‘spamwritting?’ Me n Billy could write the kama sutra of usin spam in the bedroom, and when the spam is spent, Billy Jr gits ter eat. Everbody wins.

Another example of our exemplary teaching corp. At least the letters are very well formed.

I appreciate that they still teach cursive. Someday they will be teaching texting instead.
They already let you eSign, so what does anybody need cursive for?
Folks see you using a writin’ iron and their liable to think your some sort of titless waf.

Probably a Black college education major and that’s how they spelled it.

Wonder how many of the people that saw this actually noticed it?

Monger, you’re wrong. The handwriting is missing. The handwritting is on the wall.

Also, John has a long mustache.

It doesn’t matter that it’s spelled wrong. What matters is how they got there.

@El, not around here they are not.

My daughter had to turn in ALL assignments utilizing cursive writing by Christmas break her fourth grade year.

She had had less than 60 minutes of instruction in cursive in THREE years.

Booklets were sent home along with instructions to “make them” work on their cursive everyday. No actual assignments, no direction, just a booklet and a deadline.

So I taught her, luckily she wanted to know how anyway.

Schools teach almost nothing that will actually help you thrive in this society. It’s all busy work put together by “experts” whom are most expert at keeping their seven figure jobs.

Daughter is transitioning to a new school this year. Part of me is praying that she will come to her senses and ask to be homeschooled because her dad would not deny her that request but he will not back me on the decision.

So it goes…

WTF cares about perfect spelling? William Shakespeare certainly didn’t. He wrote his name in several different ways and never spelled his surname “Shakespeare.”

On the other hand, these days people are constantly judged on the basis of their dress, speech, behavior, writing, and spelling.

Why handicap yourself? Don’t belly up to the bard when it comes to orthography. Dress traditionally, keep foul mouth four letter words out of your fucking vocabuary, behave like Dale Carnegie, write as engagingly as Administrator does, and learn how to spell “handwriteing” correctly.
