    I've still got massive quantities of cheap lined paper left over from high school, but nothing really to write about either :p. Fountain pens (especially old ones like that) need to be written with every few days or they'll dry up, causing permanent damage, so I usually just hit the random article button on Wikipedia and copy the first paragraph. I do keep a journal too though, for the occasion when something interesting does happen.

    I would have a picture of my handwriting, but my phone is piece of trash that won't do that, even if I actually send it through e-mail.

    Im the same. I have the handwriting of a world class doctor. it's funny, in grade school they always told us we had to write in cursive and this and that. oh your professors won't accept a paper unless it's in cursive. really? if I tried handing my professor a paper in cursive I'd have been laughed at and asked why it wasn't typed double space. my signature is my first name in 3rd grade cursive, and my last is an M followed by a random scribble. I literally scribble it. fuck it.

    I have a perfect signature, which I can at least recreate in Paint.

    Shame cursive handwriting is not used anymore, thanks to technology that eliminated the need to write stuff out by hand.

    My writing is ok. Nothing amazing but totally legible to anyone familiar with written English. No cardinal sins present as long as my hands are warm enough to write with, if they are cold its slow, painful and quite shaky. My cursive handwriting is slow, but that is what happens when you haven't done it since primary school, still fairly legible though. I use gel pens (0.7mm uniball signo for writing to be exact).

    My typing is not so great. I am a four finger (+thumb) typist, which really isn't great for a programmer. I really should learn to type better, if typing properly I can manage but at a much slower pace, so just practice needed in general to get the muscle memory nailed on how to do different letter combinations quickly. Although I am much slower at hitting the backspace when typing with all fingers which is the main issue.

    My spelling on the other hand is quite bad, it slows me down a lot and I often give up and pick an easier to spell word when writing by hand. On computers spell check (plus sanity check) is really nice to have.

    I'm pretty good at grammar and spelling and stuff but my handwriting is awful.

    My slowly deliberately crafted cursive isnt that bad actually. Wrote "My Little Spoon" under someones bustline once in cursive using a body safe felt tip pen thing. Came out really fucking well. Then their mom found out XD

    Eh. I've always had terrible fine motor skills and atrocious handwriting. If any homework cannot be done on the computer, I'm pretty much screwed.
    I have to print and write at a snail's pace for it to look neat.
    As I said, I have terrible fine motor skills so I find it impossible to cable manage inside a PC. Don't get me started on those stupid stupid connectors for the front panel buttons etc... The reset button on my case has never worked on my Carbide Spec-03 (would've preferred the Spec-01) and I have never bothered to try and fix it, I don't think it's plugged in properly...

    Anything grammar or spelling etc is fine though.

    I remember back when they made me learn cursive in elementary school. I hated every second of it. Now I have no clue how to write in cursive. Why did they make me learn it when it's now irrelevant?

    Today's water temperature in my area (Pensacola Bay) are apparently 78 F. But dear Lord does it feel like 35 kelvin.

    Water temperature is weird.

    You obviously never been in Canadian waters. In that case, our waters are always ice cold.

    I'm an ol' Florida boy. 75 F would probably give me hypothermia.

    That's roughly 23 C.

    In another case, the waters where the RMS Titanic sank was at 28 F, which is roughly -2 C.

    That's 12 C. Trust me, I've been in a pool with ice fucking cold water. So cold, it hurt so bad and I was in the pool waist deep.

    Do not go in a pool with water that is 40-50 F, not worth it.

    Yea, the spring I went to was in the summer or so. I wouldn't even think of going there right now.
