    I don’t know which character in this story wrote “payment” in the photo but it reminds me of one of those photos of where they gave a spider crack and let it spin a web…

        It looks like I wrote it with my left hand. And my writing with my right hand already looks like that of a child.

      He obviously can’t enter into a contract because he’s five years old

      While I don’t disagree with you at all, my writing sometimes looks like that when I write something down while in a moving car (not driving lol).

        …or with your left hand while right handed

        …or while writing on the paper with nothing to back it but your other hand…

      I think there is an arrow pointing down from the p so it’s not as bad as it first appears but I am definitely giving this person the benefit of the doubt

    The thing that really gets me on the SovCit thing is its like, a simultaneous rejection of any kind of authority around words and definition, and yet also an appeal to authority on some “other” definitions.

    Its like how in medieval Europe before the printing press there was this arcane reverence for the written word, as if it has some magical qualities to it. Like if somehow they just combine the right sequence of legalize on the right size and shape piece of card stock it will “unlock” something.

    Words only have the specific cherry-picked definition I like no matter the authors intention.

    A document that serves to recognize a liability and authorize the disbursement of cash.

    Yeah, your liability and the disbursement of your cash to someone else - like the parent of the child you’re not paying for. They can’t even understand the meaning of the sentence they underlined.
