    I work alongside people that went to Cambridge, and even they don’t use cursive. No one uses cursive in the real world, it’s just this made-up thing you get taught in school just to waste some time.

      Respectfully disagree. I myself went for embarrassingly long without knowing English cursive (only knew it for my native language), so I know the difference, and it DOES matter. As soon as most of my reading materials (and thus notes) became English, I had no choice other than to learn cursive, because otherwise writing is painfully slow.
