      dd1 always thinks that I am scribbling when I sign. I always explain to her that the 'scribbling' is in fact my signature.


      she insists that it is not a signature, but a 'scribblature' :roll:

            That's the coolest word I've heard in my whole year... \"Scribblature\"


            I feel like changing my moniker name to that 😉

              Just did a quick Google of scribblature. Here's the definition:


              noun, 1) One's name written illegibly by oneself, esp for the purpose of confirming identity [ironic].

              2) The act of writing one's name illegibly, esp medical profession.[/size][/size]

              Mebbe your DD1 is trying to suggest something, ImMeeMee 😉 :lol: :rotflmao:

                oh my, i didnt realize that the word actually exists!! thanks muffins for the research!

                according to wiki, the definition of a signature:

                'A signature (from Latin signare, \"to sign\") is a handwritten (and sometimes stylized) depiction of someone's name ...'

                come to think of it, 'scribblature' may be a more appropriate depiction when we mean 'signature', cos it is our name that is written by ourselves, as a form of our identity, and is most of the time illegible. ref the google definition of scribbalture:

                1) One's name written illegibly by oneself, esp for the purpose of confirming identity

                :lol:

                  I reminded my son to put some powder after his shower…he was supposed to see a doctor for a review done. I said, ‘Put some powder so you smell nicer’. He asked me, ‘What for ? Any discount if I smell nicer ?’

                        hahaha yes maybe he can get the discount since smelling nicer than others 😛

                        I can't believe him for saying that. Asked him why would he care for a discount...he told me, 'so that I can buy beyblade.'
