chicken scratch

1) extremely messy handwriting, normally only legible by the person who wrote it.
2) a game normally played by bored secondary school kids in the uk, where two students scratch the same spot over and over light enough to take the first few layers of skin off. whoever reacts to the pain first loses.

1) "what does this even say, man? i can't read this chicken scratch!"
2) "come on, pussy, let's play chicken scratch."
