You know how some people put a line across the number seven "7" ? Is this telling of a personality trait? If so, what does this indicate?

Well, I do it. I dont have anyone military in the family and I have never even been to Europe! Even the people at my bank look at me funny when I dash my 7's....Most people I have seen around here dont dash their 7's.....So I have no idea where I picked up on this!

It is a European trait that is supposed to help differeniate a written 7 from a writte 1. I once gave our new address to an English pen pal and didn't dash the 7s. He sent it to 1110 instead of 7770.

Feeling alienated by using 'the regulations' because human beings say they are significant, for this reason stifling your own creativity beforehand it really is had a danger to flourish Being overly preoccupied with desires of e-e book beforehand you've nurtured skills. Revising your grammar too early. Being afraid to write down garbage, in case you want to, and over apologising for it. Forgetting that regulations make us a similar, and that ideas make us different. Forgetting to have interesting along with your words. jumping on band wagons.

No, if they do it consistently it is usually a tell-tale sign that the person went to school in a European country. That is a taught behavior in European schools. Several German spies were caught in WWII because this behavior is not taught in American schools.

I believe French people make their 7's like that. I had a French teacher who made us write our 7's like that (about 100 years ago).

Its the European way and if you do it here in the US it means you like the style.

It's a habit, picked up by parents, friends, siblings, or teachers. Doesn't mean anything.
