Do they not dot their i’s in calligraphy?
Actually it says mmmiinu
no is actually munimim. please dont comment if you dont know what you’re talking about
I think you arw getting downvoted because people have misread your comment and think you didnt get my joke. The irony being that you clearly did get my joke and actually joined in on the joke with your comment. I think your spelling is too much like typoglycemia.
lol probably. eh as long as u got it :)
also what’s typoglycemia
The first thing that popped into my head when I saw that “fence” is Tengwar:
The elves must really hate dyslexics
the first thing that popped into my head was Russian cursive.
Ha, true, it can be almost as hairy as Tengwar especially if you write nonsense. Quick, name all the letters:
edit: made it worse
Cursive и being written like a u is just… ugh
At least shapewise it’s like close-ish; the one that really gets my goat is how the fuck does т turn into m.
Can someone please Photoshop it and fix the keming
Huh. Weird. You made that comment. I didn’t. sometimes my Lemmy glitches after I leave a comment it does things like this to me:
instead of posting my comment, it posts my username over somebody else’s comment 🤔 It’s a temporary glitch and It fixes itself after I exit then come back. I captured that screenshot to get evidence of the glitch before it fixed itself.
… Hahahha?! You should contact the app developer thats silly and weird
You’re right. I should report this glitch. This is the first time I’ve been able to catch it and put it into words.
there are a few glitchy things about this app but those of us who are loyal to it are loyal suckers for sure.
I’m pretty sure there is an extra “picket”.
No, there’s not. I Zoomed in and scrolled it one letter at a time. It’s the right number of pickets for minimum. It’s just a horrible, horrible mind fuck. Lol
MVP right here. My stupid dyslexic brain refused to make sense of it
I did it on my phone, so it’s not great. But it might help show the letters.
It’s great thank you
keming
kerning
FTFY.
That indeed is the joke, yes
Dammit lmao the joke has stuck so hard I forget which one is the real one.
Ok that’s hilarious.
In a few decades maybe it’ll officially be “keming”
But still pronounced “kern-ing” and no one knows why
Thank you
Chinchilla in Russian cursive:
Well yeah, but it’s not a calligraphy, it’s just bad writing (and cursed word).
Does Russian “chinchilla” begin with a ч? Or a ш?
If it starts with a “ch” sound as in “ч,” chinchilla would look like this:
Its шиншилла
a
You can do it better, or use a nice font for your writings
I don’t know why that weird ass little gross thing is so appropriate but that is probably the best possible response lol.
Uma! He’s a character from the Witcher 3.
Hmmm, since when handwriting is called cursive?
Not all handwriting is cursive. Mine, for example.
Russian cursive
лишишь
New metal band font dropped.
Isn’t it clear?
No. :)
eschew obfuscation
This is actually a thing. When learning calligraphy, it was one of the exercises we did. If you have good enough control of your hand and pen, then all strokes should be the same length, slanted the same way, and separated by the same spacing. When you manage this apparent “unreadable” thing, it means you nailed it!
The example below comes from this site (not mine)
For a second there, I saw it. Now it’s just a fence again.
It’s a pretty obsolete hobby, as we have computers and printers that can do the exact same thing in a fraction of the time. I know people do it as an art form, which is fine I guess, though you’re not gonna sell prints, get published, or end up in a museum no matter how good you are at it.
The money in calligraphy is usually made on wedding invitations, diplomas, “fine fining” menus, and corporate award certificates
Hobbies don’t become obsolete dummy
But obsolete jobs do become hobbies.
Not really the point of a hobby to be better than computers or make money with it.
Imagine thinking a hobby needed to be useful.
Is it really a hobby if it’s not profitable? /s
You do hobbies for fun, not making money, that’s a job.
Yes, also painters are obsolete, because AI permits even Cletus to be an artist
Someone is definitely making a buck with all those calligraphy books and supplies.
Do you measure all your hobbies with possibility of making money? I mean, that is not a hobby, that’s work then.
Same reason I don’t exercise: I’m never going to make money with my running skills.
Keming is a bitch.
/s
Well played
