    Well in honesty font hate is one of the stupider things to get upset about, its like right above getting mad about someone using or not using a straw with a soft drink.

    I would class typography with any other form of art, since it is a form of art. Hence my comparison to movies earlier, something Variable happens to care about.

    I get not liking a font, I don't get the overreaction. I said in a post earlier 'that's great, you don't like it'. my point being you know... it's fine to not like something, I just think it's silly that people seem to actually get angry over it

    Oh, when you said that I thought you were being sarcastic.

    the wonders of internet communication

    from now on comic sans should be the sarcasm font

    I'm a graphic designer, fonts are a big part of what I do. I hate on comic sans like a classical singer might hate on Auto-Tune.

    But the hipster piece of shit who just hates on comic sans and goes on and on about Helvetica to look cool? Fuck him with a rake.

    So you hate both the people who agree and disagree with your opinion on the font?

    There is no inconsistency between disliking a font for honest reasons and disliking people who hate on it to look cool.

    If your job goals involve beauty or communication or the like, do the presumed reasons someone has an opinion that works with your goal really matter?

    Comic sans is the font people use when they forward you a shitty joke with ninety three quoted emails below

    it is also in pink, full of broken images, and uses multiple exclamation marks

    it could also be an email about Jesus

    it's an ugly font. It looks unpleasant and amateurish, like it was made by a poor designer.

    Fonts which attempt to look handwritten or cute or organic or otherwise non artificial always end up just looking like poor artifice. Comic sans is the archetype of such failure.

    What if we had a President who was just openly a manwhore. Like, he hid it during his campaign, then once elected basically made backstage at a rock concert look like a sewing circle.

    The Secret Service would have kittens.
    Their cats would spontaneously conceive when brought into his vicinity.
