Comic Sans Criminal »

I did not know that a redeeming quality of this abused font is that it has been found to make reading easier for dyslexics. That’s kind of cool.

 Unpopular opinions:

I still like Nic Cage and I’ve never had a problem with Comic Sans.

As the link shows, it has its place. But unfortunately, too much of a good thing can turn very wrong. I read something recently about Times New Roman that referred to it as a lack of choice of font. Personally, I play nice with fonts. Sometimes I back away slowly. After all they are more afraid of us than we are of them. No wait, that’s some types of animals or insects or something.
