random poll

[rm]

Super busy. Am suddenly curious about this. Apparently most kids entering college in the US this year don't know how to write in cursive. I suspect this is less a sign of the apocalypse than it feels like to me.

So, tell me things (as usual, poll is un-scientific and reflects my biases and experiences (and 49-year-olds can choose which age category they like better!) -- if the boxes don't work, my apologies and comments super welcome.):

And my printing is much faster than my cursive. And more legible.

I guess I associate cursive writing so strongly with elementary school that using cursive in the workplace feels childish to me. Like writing in crayon. It's just not something that adults are ever called on to do, in my world.
