Bo. Bo Burnham.
I considered analyzing his samples from inside
where he writes like "What is dogs could vape?"
or like he has this huge
graphic? web? .....thing?
but I didn't wanna analyze those since its all caps.
I've talked about all caps writing before,
if you wanna check out a vid where I do talk about all caps,
check out like, the Tyler video.
so, I found this sample where he's not writing in all caps-
hehe hi :D
see, this is what she does. then she goes all the way up there-
I have no explanation.
so I found a sample of bo's writing thats not in all caps,
so I thought that we'd start here
this is a pretty old sample, so,
this is old bo. not new bo.
so if you think my analysis isn't really describing bo,
maybe its describing old bo?
this is a small sample,
but there's actually alot of traits showing up here
and ill list them out, but-
ok
why when first looking at this did I think he wrote
"sit on my face"
WHOAREYOULOOKINGAT??
if you haven't subscribed yet, go ahead.
we have fun on this channel ummmm :D
AH ok writing
we've got these oven d's where it from this oval.
which indicates being sensitive to criticism
we've also got a lowercase I for
the personal pronoun i
instead of a capital.
which indicates some self-esteem issues.
"why?" you may ask would a lowercase i
indicate self-esteem issues? well
let me tell you.
the thing about personal pronoun I's
they represent how you see yourself.
if you write in the palmer method, or cursive,
then it goes even deeper than that, but
I mean- lets not get ahead of ourselves.
if you write in print, not in cursive,
you know- let me have a teacher moment.
I have a white board
can I get a teacher moment :D
welcome to my
teacher portion of the video <3
ok
we've got this huge glare happening ;-;
should I be on this side? no.
if you have a personal pronoun I thats of a comfortable size,
it means ur independent, reliable, responsible,
if u have a really enlarged I,
its really inflated-
it means u might have a bit of an ego.
if you have a pretty small I,
it either means you're humble, you're shy,
maybe you have self-esteem issues but
it means you don't feel the need to take up space
in a room in the same way that this, or this person does.
If you don't have any of these
if you just have a lowercase i
which is what bo has.
it means he doesn't even think he's deserving enough
to represent himself with a capital letter.
he doesn't even think he's worth a capital letter.
thats what it means <3
let me- reset- TRIPOD
some graphology textbooks will say that
have a lowercase I is low self-esteem to the
point of immaturity
and wanting to draw attention to yourself,
but I think thats a bit harsh.
I think it just means low self-esteem.
I don't usually go into the "why"
of why traits mean certain things, but
but maybe I should.
because I think it helps people who are
a little more skeptical of graphology
understand the reasoning and the logic behind why traits
mean certain things
if they have that-that context
that meaning behind it, so,
I don't know, maybe ill do a little more of this in the future.
I just really like my white board :D
but next, there's something really unique happening
to this t bar that I'm gonna get into,
but I actually wanna talk about the numbers first.
sometimes when im doing an analysis with some one
in real life, like from my life
they're like- "does numbers work for doing an analysis on?"
if they do alot of math for their job.
and the answer is yes and no but mostly no
uuuuuuuh I know-
I know a few special things about the number 7
the short answer, no.
the reason I can't do numbers is numbers don't have zones.
you can still tell like basic stuff,
like size, pressure, sometimes slant,
other basic stuff like if its really spikey-
that would indicate aggression,
super round- that would indicate maybe immaturity,
but usually friendliness,
or like if the numbers are really illegible-
I'll go on my *teacher arc*
one day I'll incorporate my white board
into my videos a little more
expertly
omg im being a teacher LETSGO
numbers
if you write your 7 like this:
oh- oh wait that means something else.
if you write you're sevens like, idk like that:
like really f%*king illegible, you don't know what it means
I would hypothesize that the writer
is depressed
the reasoning behind that:
is illegibility means you don't give a sh*t,
if you don't really give a sh*t it means
you don't really give a sh*t about yourself,
if you don't give a sh*t about yourself, you're probably depressed.
that why I mean when I say you can tell basic
stuff, but numbers, you can really
only tell very surface level things about a person.
you need letters you need sentences, you need words,
the more words and sentences, the better.
but, SEVENS!
I do know a number specific trait about sevens
this is a very French way to write 7
the only reason I know that is
because I went to a French immersion school
so all my teachers were from a French speaking country
and this is how we were taught to write 7s
there's another one for fours
there is a region that writes 4's like this more than
this, cause this is how in the United States
how we were taught to write 4s
I don't know what country writes 4s like this usually
with one stroke instead of 2
one day im gonna go on eBay and I'm gonna
buy a "learn how to write" book from every single country
so I can know these region specific things
I got into a tangent about numbers
this was supposed to be about BO
but yeah speaking about illegibility,
his writing is still pretty legible so
hes holding it together, he's not depressed to the point
where he doesn't give a sh*t about anything
hes not there.
but, I was gonna talk about the t bar specifically
although this in all fairness is still a t,
I would classify this as an x formation actually.
and x formations indicate death,
martyrdom, just ending, thoughts of endings in general.
sometimes its a fascination, sometimes its as far as suicidal thoughts,
hi this is editing Leah
and I goofed up that trait.
I even had an inkling that I was off when filming, but
yeah ok so,
this is what an x formation in a t would actually look like.
which is not the same as the trait that Bo has.
and I know this may look like a small difference
if this is like the first video on graphology that you've watched
if you're new here, but
it does mean something different.
because upward angles are optimistic and ambitious
when they're steep like this it can be kind of to the point of recklessness,
but generally it means ambition.
ill let you hear what filming Leah has to say about x formations though
because x formations I think are pretty important
they're a pretty important trait to know and look out for in ppl's writing.
I talk more about x formations in the MGK video
if you wanna hear me talk more about it but-
yeah its a pretty useful trait to know especially if you're worried
about someone in your life
so, yeah I figured even though I goofed up the trait,
so alright thank you
But- I'm actually not gonna look to deep into that
because there's another t bar
that looks totally fine.
its a bigger deal if you see x formations littered all over the page, but
it only shows up once so im not gonna look to deep into it.
if we had another sample of bo's writing and we were seeing
x formations all over the place then
I might be a little more concerned hmmm
however since hes already got sensitive to criticism and low self-esteem
like, if this was the writing of someone in you're life,
id say you can be on the look out for this person's mental health
like be on the look out for if they're showing signs of
depression or showing signs of like a cry for help
like those types of things
-if they start showing other signs of declining mental health
you might wanna bring it up to them
and just, you know, be there for them.
but if you were just doing an analysis with someone you
didn't know very well,
I probably wouldn't bring it up
just bc you don't want the writer to panic
and then freak out about me saying
saying aaaa AAAA graphology isn't really ajshfksjdbvkjbknl
its funny, I feel like I get more of that happen to me when
im closer to the truth.
sometimes ppl get more defensive
the more accurate your analysis is
instead of vice versa, if you're getting everything wrong,
sometimes they're a little more forgiving
thats when they start panicking.
and the next thing they're like- WHAT WAHT
Idont have DADDYISSUES
YOUHAVEDADDYISSUES
and im like r e l a x !
its just handwriting!
graphology, at least my graphology
in the way I like to analyze handwriting
my graphology is never personal attacks.
even though I like to meme that they are personal attacks,
they are NEVER person attacks to the writer.
and technically, they have nothing to do with the writer.
I'm not saying, excuse me sir, you're a narcissist.
Im saying, excuse me sir...
this writing would indicate to me that
the writer might be a narcissist.
and there's a difference there, however slight that is.
im describing what the writing would indicate, I'm not describing the writer. huge difference.
but I might be getting this t trait wrong anyways
because some books of mine say that since its on an upwards angle
it would indicate optimism and ambition
so ill leave it up to you, is he death obsessed or is he just ambitious?
either way, t bars are a coin flip at this point
because I only have 2 examples
id need more writing to say anything deeper
moving on, its hard to tell if the baseline is rising or not
since hes holding the page at this angle,
but the las thing ill talk about is this y formation.
its this faint curving
and its curving in the opposite direction that ys are supposed to curve at
I was trying to look up what this might mean
because I was stumped by this, I was stumped.
this trait isn't in any of the books that I have.
so we kind of have to use what we know.
and I know that faint lowerzones represent sexual restlessness
because it has to do with the lowerzone
and bc it has to do with the lowerzone all I can say is there's
something abnormal sexually happening here
whether its sexual anxiety or an unusual fetish
im kindof leaning more towards the sexual anxiety because
its not really that abnormal of a lowerzone.
usually weird fetishes are really loopy or really
enlarged or really going in some direction
thats usually what those are but
yeah so in conclusion:
id conclude... the writer is probably mentally ill.
but overall, hes holding it together
which is funny because whenever I watch bo's work I always wonder-
oh is he talking about how bad his mental health is because
he wants to market to me who is also mentally ill?
but no, its not a ploy to get your money
or relate to you its-
he's unstable.
no, hes not joking when he says he's got low mental health
at lest in my opinion.
is this person like concerningly mentally ill?
I don't think so, however this was a small sample.
but thats it <3
okay bye :D
