Noticed Today...

It’s a shame the number 5 takes so much longer to write (relatively) to the other single digit numbers. No shortcuts to be taken or it looks like a messy backwards 2, and that’s not cool with me.

I have never been able to write ‘8’ decently. As a kid, I used to write it almost sideways, like the infinity sign, which was fine with me. But then my teachers slowly started making me write it upright and it was difficult for me to do. Even now, I can’t write it properly. It starts off okay but then ends with an ugly straight line from bottom-left to top-right, occasionally followed by an ugly sharp turn at the top if I feel like trying to complete the loop.

So lay off the ‘5’, yeah? Join me in hating the ‘8’ instead.
