sister thread: do you write your i's as a line or with that stupid dot?

just for legibility, not aesthetics

sister thread: do you dot your i's with a heart or an open circle?

My 2s and 7s are a bit too close for comfort so I cross it, no doubt.

edit:

I dot my i's with a dot but the real question is whether you dot them after the stroke of the i or after the stroke of the word.

the fuck? 'tis very personal question.

I write 7's a lot due to my 747 obsession. And I cross them most of the time. So I'm a yes.

Yes, it's how I differentiate between my 1's and my 7's. I also underline my ones.

Cross the zero from bottom-left to upper-right

this is what my french boss does and he laughs at my handwriting because he thinks my 9's are 4s

basically: get a fucking job, frenchie.

I used to cross my 7's in school, when I thought that my hand-writing should look older and more sophisticated.

Due to a decade of typing everything instead of writing it, I tend to just stab at paper nowadays.

yes
