It was a big signature, but wasn’t actually this big.

john hancock's john hancock

You can tell it’s shopped because of the pixels

The pixels are because this was written in 1776 and printers back then just weren't that good

Was gonna make fun of Stephen Hopkins’ signature, but apparently he had cerebral palsy.

He said, "My hand trembles, but my heart does not."

What are you doing Step Hawkins?

Benjamin Franklin: Uhh, I think this is a pretty good plan, we should be able to pull it off this time. Uhh, what do you think Adams? Can you give me a number crunch real quick?

John Adams: Uhhh.. yeah, gimme a sec… I’m coming up with thirty-two point three three uh, repeating of course, percentage, of survival.

Benjamin Franklin: Uh…that’s a lot better than we usually do. Uhh, alright, you think we’re ready guys?

John Hancock: [interrupting Franklin] Alright chums, I’m back! Let’s do this… JOHNNYYYYYYYYYY HANCOOOOOOOOOOCK [furiously scribbles signature]

This was such a Chad move though. “I’m going to make sure the king knows exactly who I am with zero fucking doubt. No chance for me to weasel out of it pretending it might be confused for some other John. Come at me you royal bitch!”

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's why he did it and why no one else got super mad about that.

[-] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 44 points 7 months ago

And this is why signatures are named after him.

[-] JoShmoe@ani.social 27 points 7 months ago

My John Hancock isn’t as big 😢

[-] FireTower@lemmy.world 13 points 7 months ago

You're just not using your wrist right.

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 5 points 7 months ago

Neither is my Johnson.

[-] AgentGrimstone@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago

Okay, he's signing last next time.

[-] RealFknNito@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago

Proceeds to write over everyone else's signature

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

It's the best cursive J. I do mine like that on purpose.
