Right? It just...looks right. The lower case g is the traditional typeface g, rather than the arial or helvetica g. It's not as round as other sans serifs, but it's not as skinny as arial, either. I just love it. It's easy to read, uncomplicated, simple.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I've got my custom CSS here set to it!
Scrivener is set to Courier, but that's because it's better for me for writing. All typewritery.

My work email default is Calibri. It's a good, workhorse of a font.
I was at a museum exhibition last week where the display text was almost, but not quite Gil Sans. I have nothing against Gil Sans at all, but the display font was so close that I kept looking for those funky "p"s in the italic bits, and they weren't there. It was distracting.

Kat, I just signed up for The Molly Weasley Ugly Jumper Run, so thanks for the pointer to the Hogwarts Running Club.
YAY! Katie and I are signed up. So excited!

I have a mini font fan in my house - in 4th grade Casper was writing an essay and started raving about Apple Chancery. (If this child does not end up in a design field I will eat my hat.)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Uh-oh, font neepery...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I signed up for the ugly sweater run too! I think I may do it early though, just because I have a 5k scheduled for Feb already but not January

I think I'd respond to the No Boring Fonts teacher by printing everything in a 50% shade of 7 point Fairydust.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Zapfino. Or Party LET. For the no boring fonts teacher.
For work, Calibrisi. It's handy for bold, 14 point "do this the way I tell you" menus.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
All our journals are set in Times New Roman. Except for the ones that have to be special, those use Arial. I prefer Calibri. I also like Comic Sans, and I have no shame.
From way back, I'm one of those people who honestly has no idea what ball is in season at any given time. I know that baseball is summer and football is winter, but nothing else sticks in my mind. My sister and niece have acquired boyfriends who are deeply into the Running of the Balls so they've developed an interest, and you'd think I'd have gathered info just through osmosis, but no. Sam keeps trying to explain football to me, and I just blank out like a jock listening to the rules of D&D. blah blah blah yard lines blah blah touchdown blah
