Are you illiterate?

So that niggers can't read your comic.

I can read that.

Canadian education

Non-whites can't read cursive.

Something can be tiring in the long term for many reasons user. If you stare at bright colors your eyes will get tired, the same applies here because you need to focus your eyes on the details especially since different screen resolutions tend to distort letters slightly, so something that looks fine to you might be blurry for someone else. Less spaces between letters means eyes have to work harder, which is a problem if you have even a minor sight defect and people with very small defects tend to not own glasses. It's also annoying to non native speakers, because I'm not used to english cursive it's annoying to read it, but of course, knowing more than one language is a sign of illiteracy according to you. Basically it has a bunch of minor inconveniences attached and absolutely no benefit that can't be gained with a well picked more readable font, it has nothing to do with ability to read and almost everything to do with it being more straining for the eyes in multiple ways. Can I read it? Yes without any serious problems, but if I have to strain my eyes to read your story then it's a fucking shit design.

I don't see the problem, I can read it.

But im "non white" (although every government doc on me says i am) and i can read it fine. My third grade teacher taught my class how to read and write it (although i was the only one who actually got good marks on it)

Russian cursive is the stuff of nightmares.

>TFW I used to write perfect cursive, but none of my teachers could read it so I had to unlearn it and I never can get it back as good as it was when I was eight.

Fucking school.

Why the fuck does cursive get taught? It is useless after you pass elementary.

I tried to learn russian. I have some limited ability to understand printed text though I don't know the language that well and reading cyrylic takes a bit of effort, written cursive? Fuck that, some words are readable but some are just squiggles. But cursive on screen is significantly more inconvenient to read than in person in any language so fuck anyone who puts it in comics.

I don;t know about you, but I only write in cursive

It's much faster for writing well. I can knock out a page in the same time someone writes a large paragraph in block.

>Cursive is useless.

People like you are why things are getting worse.

These comics are aimed at adults, that's why
I'm calling this bullshit, outside America is pretty common for kids in elementary to learn how to spell cursive

It helps children to develop their writing and artistic skills

Not in the UK. I was taught it by my mother. Not even in public school was I taught cursive.

>tfw used to know how to write in cursive but forgot past elementary school

USA here, I learned cursive in third grade, as did most of my peers. Is that not a thing anymore?

The thing about this is that it’s not just cursive, it’s very rough looking cursive

>this is what Americans believe
If you know how to read English you know how to read cursive

I think learning cursive has permanently ruined my handwriting. It taught me to just connect random letters in a word and no one can fucking read anything I write. It should be completely thrown out.

that sounds more like a "you" problem than a cursive problem. i write in a mix of print and cursive and my writing is perfectly legible.

I don't even understand it at all. We learned it in school, and then we never think about it again. What the hell was even the point? Were we supposed to write like that forever now?

Half of the people here are missing the point that reading cursive is just more inconvenient because the readability depends heavily on the handwriting which makes it inconsistent, especially on screen where it's almost never full size. Cursive is not bad, but cursive in comics is a crime against the medium.

>Can't read cursive
>Zoomer education detected

Bet you can't tell time on an analog clock.

I was never taught cursive, at least I don’t think. maybe back in early elementary (I’m 19). whenever I need to sign in cursive for something, I just scribble incomprehensible shit in a line. that’s what cursive looks like to me anyways.

Yeah at some point int he late 2000's the people who make the state curriculums decided that teaching kids how to properly type on a keyboard was a better use of time than cursive.

They're right, I'm 27 and I can honestly say ever since middle school I've never used cursive other than to sign my name. Even then it's mostly just the first letter and a scribble

I'm fucking pale and I can barely read it

I didn't even know you were supposed to sign in cursive until later. They never told us that in school.

Don't project too hard.

Do they still teach cursive in schools? I learned it back in the 90s, but my teachers seemed pretty lackluster about it. It was an archaic skill even then and it's getting more so every year.

>I can read my own cursive but can barely read others

Time makes fools of us all, user. There was a time not to long ago when you would occasionally have to write out a lot of text by hand, and cursive was genuinely the best way to do it quickly and comfortably. No one expected the world to change as quickly as it has.

HA! Get fucked zoomer.

I'm white and I can't read that shit

I still write in cursive whenever I need to write anything down. I even get people commenting on how nice my handwriting is and that they've never seen anything like it.

I actually had to rub my eyes after looking at some of that shit

Hmm. Now I am trying to remember why I dropped out of Greek school. My parents said I wrote Greek letters and even cursive ones better tha in English. Then again, I didn't really know the language so I would just take time to focus on the letters.

Cursive was literally invented to spare quills, theybwere most likely to break when you first pressed them to the paper.

Not him, but I'm a 35 year old boomer and can barely read cursive anymore because the only time I use and see it anymore is for signatures, everything else is typed out.

So using Cursive as a technique to transmit story to the reader is apparently wrong for OP... sad

It needlessly complicates a page that already has too much writing.

>story conveys narration with handwritten pages from a personal journal
>hurr durr, why is it in cursive?
