I honestly don't understand the Comic Sans hatred. Used for the purpose it was intended to, it's a good solution.
Well, the problem is that people don't use it where it was intended. And actually, the article that Jess linked to galls me a little, because if the designer copied actual comic book lettering, he did a really bad job of it. There are other comic book fonts that look MUCH better than comic sans.
Not looking that one up Amy. I get enough of an idea from the word alone.
We had surprise snow this morning. Not a lot but enough to be a where the heck did that come from. The weather needs to act right so I can fly out tomorrow.
Happy Belated, Tommy.
One of my cousins in Florida is a full on conspiracy theorist. Thankfully I only hear about it through other family members who scoff at the theories.
I just think "Comic Sans was never meant to by a typeface, I was just so horrified that KIDS might be reading TIMES NEW ROMAN!!!!" is a stupid fucking thing to say.
Remind me not to wait three months to clean out my e-mail again. Man, I am on All The Lists, except apparently the Soros World Domination list...poncy bugger owes me fifty quid, anyway, if we were all getting paid at DK, that is.
Jessica, consider the source. Of course they find words strung together in the right order frightening, whatever the context.
I love each and every one of you. Thanks for helping me maintain my sanity.
Well, what's left of it, anyway.

I don't know, personally Anime Ace 2 is the only one of those I'd pick over Comic Sans. Smack Attack is my go-to comic book font.
Absolutely everything you need to know about the Papal elections.
The heavy favorite is Angelo Scola, the 71-year-old archbishop of Milan.
Yay!
He would be a culturally conservative pick, having written a whole book lambasting feminism and, according to reviewer Luke Timothy Johnson, associating homosexuality with “nihilism and narcissism.” The argument, Johnson surmises, is that “feminism is responsible for homosexuality, because the more women act like men, the more men are likely to want to have sex with other men.”
Oh. Ew. Sorry.
I think that most of us are just sort of generally tempted to lick Teppy.
Hmmm, I wonder if this is more ok than hugs?

Yes, this. I have more than enough conspiracy theorists and other wackos IRL to deal with. So grateful for the refuge.
