Do you write your numbers/letters different to other people?

I've just recently noticed that I write my 7's with a small horizontal line through them, I only noticed when somebody pointed it out, and I was quite shocked. No one I know do their 7's like that - maybe you write your numbers or letters differently? If so, discuss; I'm interested to hear some other peculiar writing "techniques", if you will.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

If so, that's how I write my 7's. I'm not sure how I picked that up, I just write it that way to prevent confusion of it resembling the number one. Plus if poeple have seen my handwriting before you probably notice how font-like it appears to be. I think Roph tried to make it into a font but it didn't work =/.

Yup, that's the one. I like writing my 7's like that so I'm not gonna stop. It's strange how I started though because my 1's and 7's (even without the line) are noticably different (I don't put a top or bottom on my ones, so sometimes they can be confused with a lower case L [l], much like my capital i's, which do not have a bottom and top either )

How ya doing, buddy?

On the contrary, I always write my neatest (save for comprehension questions, they are t3h suck). I don't write cursive, I just print. Too much effort in learning to connect different letters in my opinion, and it looks very messy when you're just learning =/

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Well by the sounds of this thread so far I guess the main reason of writing 7's with a line is to be able to easily tell them apart from 1's. Interesting - whenever anyone asks me why I do my 7's like that, that's what I'll say
