They told us to stop writing in cursive because 1. The adults couldn't READ cursive and 2. They wanted us to start typing things to turn in so there was nothing that need3r to be in cursive
That was a private comment to another FSers, but sure, I get your point.
I am guilty of occasionally doing the Dad joke thing. Also, I AM a Dad. I do it, at least in part, to draw a bit of attention to the fact that much of the community has an issue with Dad jokes, but LOVES those same kind of jokes as long as they're thinly disguised as something other than Dad jokes.
Take it or leave it, though. I realize most of you are just looking for any opportunity to satisfy your petty urges, not to mention dehumanize those whose worldview upsets you.

I used to know cursive when I was little. Now my handwriting has gone to Shit.
When I was in first grade elementary school, I learnt (by myself, by looking at my parents' handwriting) to write my name in cursive. When I showed the teacher, instead of being glad that I was ahead of schedule, she told me to "wait with this till second grade" and not even in a friendly or joking tone, she sounded like she was really annoyed that I even showed her.
Shit was heartbreaking.
One side of the argument will write in my regular scrawl and the other will write in cursive.
