Boomer - "Yeah fuck kids! Cut education spending again every candidate I ever voted for!"

Also Boomer - "They're not teaching the kids as much as they used to and I don't like it."

Tbf, cursive is mostly only useful when compared to print in that it is much faster to write. I haven't written anything that I would say would be easier to write in cursive since I was in high school. Everything else has been typed or short enough that the difference in speed is pointless.

Cursive was originally created to prevent ink bouts when writing with quills, so now that we have ballpoint pens, printers, and typing it is only really useful for signatures, and you can make a custom signature online so even that use is fading out.
