Having seen this article today:

www.thepoke.co.uk/2019/01/21/everyones-compare-draw-x-people-minds-blown/

AIBU to think that 8 is the only way? Why would you do it any other way!

8, every time, lower and upper case. I'm right handed.

  1. But what is the point of the article?
OneHanded · 28/12/2019 01:40

I’m a seven! Was left handed, but I think now I’m stuck using my right I’d still do the same.,,

fblake · 28/12/2019 01:40

Number 5 for me!

5 is the most efficient way for cursive, surely?

You come into it from the previous letter and out of it into the next letter.

BitOfFun · 28/12/2019 01:49

I'm with you, OP. Eight is the proper way.

Gemma2019 · 28/12/2019 01:53

I'm a 7 - the other ways are just wrong

NeckPainChairSearch · 28/12/2019 01:55

I opened the link and assumed the answer would be deadly obvious - 5. Surely everyone does it like that Grin

I'm genuinely surprised by the answers!

dontgobaconmyheart · 28/12/2019 01:55

8 (and am eight handed)

shiningstar2 · 28/12/2019 01:56

7 and left handed

dontgobaconmyheart · 28/12/2019 01:57

Christ - am not eight-handed, am fully human (just about) and right- handed BlushGrin
