There is definitely a difference between my tablet signature and my pen/paper signature. I think maybe I should have 2 signatures. Maybe a smiley face and a sad face.

OK but no identity thefting my fake identities please.

About 10 years ago they trialled using fingerprints instead of signatures in the UK> I guess it wasn't successful.

My signature is very inconsistent and messy.

Well if the 1999 movie 'classic' Entrapment has taught me anything, all you need are some latex gloves and baby powder to defeat even the most complex of systems.

If you replace 'signature' with 'life' that's basically me explaining my past in a job interview.

Having a nice arse helps too, apparently.

My signature morphed into its current appearance when I was signing a lot of letters and documents back in the 1990s, at that time the last two letters of my surname disappeared and were replaced with an n-like squiggle. My signature has been stable ever since.

At the same time my initials, as in when asked to initial something, became a swift fluid motion that looks like a cross between a bow tie and a cartoon drawing of a mosquito.

My old boss had a signature that was like an 'N', but with the rightmost upright line turned into a long sweep to the right. His name was Peter, it made no bloody sense at all

Never had I been so glad my signature turned into a one-flick-of-the-wrist squiggle than when I became a notary. Get a pile of 500 waivers to notarize, that shit takes time.

I rarely have to initial things, so mine are still recognizable as my actual initials.

Signing with a picture of a penis is not a good idea either...

This Guy Just Made The Staff At Walmart Lose Their Minds...This Is Genius.

How did you ever find that story? Sometimes the internet is so funny.

Over the past 3-4 years, whenever little Miss P has been with me when I have been shopping, she has signed the electronic signature pad. This has happened probably at least once a month, most commonly at Lowes, but also at Home Depot, Walmart, BJ's, at the local Kroger franchise, and probably a few other places besides. I would gues this has now happened around 40-50 times.

Not once has a sales assistant ever said a thing; sometimes they just smile. Needless to say the signature doesn't match. ..... So the situation is more extreme than in the linked article, because the sales staff know the signature isn't that of the card holder, and in any case she is too young to sign a binding signature anyway!
