How the hell is that supposed to be an a? It looks like an o
Pretty sure it’s a backwards a, to signify that the kid who wrote it is a little goofy.
Larson has drawn his characters’ writing as intentionally bad in other comics to make it clear that they’re primitive in some way, so this would make sense.
Huh that could be it.
Smh kids these days can’t write in cursive
Idc what you say this is how we were taught
I meant Gary Larson is the kid these days who can’t write in cursive!
Ah damn. Misunderstandings gallore in this comment thread.
The right side is concave. Os are convex all the way around.
This is how we were taught
Explain the a in “Gaffney.”
Compare the a in Gaffney with the standalone one.
The a in Gaffney doesn’t have the leading stroke from your handwriting example.
Yeah but the one in brain does. The example is shit cursive anyway. The point being the one in gaffney still has the line at the bottom on the right. The standalone one is just not an a.
Here I even wrote it correctly just for you.
From your original handwriting example, I thought you were suggesting that the way you were taught, letter “o” and “a” always have the leading stroke (like Larson’s standalone “a”), even when the letter starts a word. Sorry, I may have misunderstood.
