Well, if it's "Africer" and "Asier", I suppose "MacRumorer" would be consistent. :D
Well, is MacRumors something you do or something you are? If it is something you do, you would be a MacRumorer (one who MacRumors). Otherwise, I guess you would be a MacRumoran.

Personally, I prefer to be called a MacRumorite.

Northeasterner? Southerner?

I remember members being referred to as 'The Knights MacRumorite' some time ago - it kinda stuck in my head. Actually, I think it may have been used pejoratively - implying that 'we mount our steeds and charge to the defence of Apple products'... something like that.
Sorry no handwriting sample... one is potentially forthcoming.

translation:
Several popular font phrases(as i like calling them)
The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
Jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz.
Cozy lummox gives smart squid who asks for job pen.

Eh, it works.

Afterthought—I'm really bad about making mistakes when I write. Typing's easier. Not to mention more legible. :p

good example of my handwriting as well. except my j's look more like j's :)

btw, I always use thick ink pens like Jaffa, I love how clean and strong it looks. lighter pens that go out are so annoying to me, much harder to study notes that way as well ;)

Sorry for the threadromancy but the degree to which my writing is similar to vniow's is freaky.
 
Or you scan what ever is handy as you can't find any paper to write on. :eek:

Anyways, here is a page of some notes from a class I sat in on a couple years ago.

I'm not going to translate... but this does show why I rarely shared my notes with other students.

Are you a group theorist?
 
Graphoanalysis is an interesting area of study. Though there is controversy over whether this field should be considered serious science, it has been taken seriously since the late 1920's. There are many more aspects to viewing a sample of handwriting, but these are some to take in to consideration. RacerX's sample just before this, would be very interesting to study.

*Slant of letters (toward left, vertical, toward right)
*Formation of capitals (Printed, Cursive, height.)
*Use of margins (fills page, begins extreme left, leaves space on page)
*Overall slant of sentence lines (upward, downward, even)
*Type of dotting on "i"s (high, right or left of character, strong, slashed)
*Pressure of writing (heavy strokes, light, uneven flow)
*Height and depth of certain letters (t's, d's, p's, f's)
*Closed or open vowels (o's, e's, a's)
*Certain slashes and straight lines (d's, t's, p's, f's)
*Printing or Cursive (type of characters and flow)
*Endings of certain letters and words (s's, t's,)
*Formation of (m's, n's, r's)
*T Crosses (high, low, upward, downward, short, long, strong

Good luck, I got my primer from the Zodiac killer storyline :)
 


I think that I lost my handwriting samples but this dude has my favorite handwriting guy in the world! :) Very expensive penmanship too.
That looks more like a 7.2 seismic print out. :)
Here's mine. Unless it's too big for the page, in which case, I'll have to resubmit.
Anyway, the "s", would be there with "jumps", and the "w" and "z" are there, too. It's an easy oversight, though. :p

you have all better watch out

people can learn a lot from your samples, for instance:

the spooks will find out where you live, pinpointing your house due to its color and how recently it got painted and whether it was sprayed, rollered out, or stroked with a brush...all by your handwriting

they will know exactly how much hard drive space is left on your computer, and know which computer you bought, where you bought it, and whether you got third party ram, and if you got free shipping...gleaned from your handwriting

and scariest thing of all is that they can tell if you will get upset with your country, your religion, and join a cult in florida in march on a rainy day eleven years from now, or in indonesia on a thursday...and all this info, yes, you guessed it, from your handwriting

YES, IT'S TrUe

and i can tell from the sound of your cough if you are well suited for being a travel agent, hairdresser, or fork life operator

and if i get close enough, i guess i could tell if you had onions on your hamburger :)
