An I only has the bars if the font (or person) uses them, which most people don't. You'll just have to get over it or be annoyed a lot. Your call.

I write I's with bars only when they come at the beginning of a word; when they occur in the middle of a capitalized word, they're just lines...

Same goes for "1"s. I write them "European-style" when they're alone, but they're just lines when found in the middle of a number.

I have *no* clue why I write like this, either.
