I have hated Comic Sans for years and have winced in actual pain every time I've seen one of my colleagues use it. My graphic design students are warned they will flunk if they go anywhere near this horrific font.
As a professional signwriter (hand-lettered signs, often with the letters made with one brush-stroke), I was formally trained in the rules for the break-down and designing of typefaces. I work on a Windows machine - only because I can't afford the Mac I want - and I can't tell you how many
If you REALLY support this, PLEASE, make sure you delete entirely that font from your PC. Just that way we are going to get rid of it, when the people start realizing it's not as popular as it was when the overuse started. Thanks.
I have always hated Comic Sans, for as long as I can remember...I just happened upon this site when reading an article on Helvetica. I'm so glad there are other poeple out there who share my disgust with such a font. Thanks!!
I had to proofread an ACS memo at work--written in comic sans! Also, the entire teacher's edition for the class I teach is written in, you guessed it, comic f-ing sans. It must stop!
I hate that font. Hate it. I am a civil engineer, and the end came when some of my colleagues began to type official BUSINESS email in this ridiculous font!
Finally! This means that I am NOT going mad, and that my wife (who, as a TV Production Manager, has used this fount for YEARS - we both work in TV) has no taste, typographically-speaking!
