In my lifetime, I have made nearly 15,000 credit card transactions. I
purchase almost everything on plastic. What bugs me about credit card
transactions is the signing. Who checks the signature? Nobody checks the
signature.
Credit card signatures are a useless mechanism designed to make you feel
safe, like airport security checks. So my question was, how crazy would I
have to make my signature before someone would actually notice?

Funny, but scary.
