i’m a font junkie. i have been since my college newspaper days. i could look at and play with fonts all day long. being a font junkie means that you have some definite likes (lots of larabie stuff, chank, veer) and dislikes. the font i despise the most is Comic Sans. i hate it. it makes me want to puke (have you ever read Bailey White’s Quite a Year for Plums? Because i’m feeling a little bit like the impassioned typographer here). anyway i just stumbled upon Ban Comic Sans. Now this, this is a cause i can get behind.

This hurts me more than you can imagine.
I need to get some of that propaganda and put it up around the office. Some people around here actually send important documents to clients in comic cans.
*hangs head in shame*
It’s not a favorite but I don’t want to take it into a back alley and hurt it. That’s reserved for something like verdana or ding-bats.

what on earth is wrong wth verdana? i like verdana.
I find Verdana sort of boring like vanilla ice cream. Maybe I am just being a lunatic….who knows?

Don’t be hatin’ on the Comic, yo.
I love Comic Sans. But only for what it’s good for. Office memos are either Times New Roman or Arial if I’m feeling jaunty. Comic Sans is a terrific font for creating images. (which I do.)
Personally I don’t understand the problem.
