Yep. There are established cognitive benefits that you don’t get from printing or keyboarding. This is such an annoying article. It’s a knee jerk reaction and lazy writing. The author didn’t bother to do any research. Our democracy is circling the drain and this is what Splinter publishes? It undermines their…
So you guys are just mad because Kasich is a Republican, right? ‘Cause this just seems like such a stupid non-issue to be bothered by.
Writing in cursive is good for development of fine motor skills and because of the flowing nature of the writing, is actually better for composition (i.e., writing a short story) that either print or typing.
Cursive also allows people to practice fine motor skills which are ESSENTIAL to society. Dentists, doctors, mechanics, artists, fabricators of all kinds. Professors I know have told me Med students have to be taught how to hold instruments, and 20 years ago they didn’t have to spend time on that.
Apparently unpopular opinion: Being able to read what your parents/grandparents wrote on pieces of paper is a useful skill that should be encouraged.
And in this case it’s calling gingerbread men, a gingerbread person, when obviously, they’re

If this is anyone but Steve Allen you’re stealing my bit!
Elves: *put a whole lot of effort into an elaborate musical number purely to entertain Santa*
Santa: “Hmph. Needs work.” *abruptly leaves*
If you’ve been waiting for a Christmas movie where Santa Claus is a distant, cold father figure for whom your effort is never good enough, then this is the film for you I guess?

A jelly pistol is an IMPROVEMENT on a water pistol if you ask me, so long as you’re not sacrificing too much in distance or accuracy. Moms would probably hesitate, but I can imagine it’d get Timmy and Bobby engaged in making their own lunches.
We were watching this when it came on a week ago or whatever, and I noted, “Wow, Santa’s in a real fuckin mood, huh.”
What about the squirt gun that shoots jelly? That never made sense to me. Even if it was filled initially with jelly, surely once it ran out it could be filled with water.
Santa’s an asshole in all the Rankin-Bass specials. In The Year Without a Santa Claus he cancels Christmas just because kids don’t appreciate him enough. And in Santa Claus is Coming to Town he’s Mickey Rooney. Enough said.
