encey Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Why do people think Comic Sans is so stupid? It's a totally legible font, and does its job, looking playful and yet clean -- perfect for teachers. My nomination for stupidest font is Hirosh: It's the kind of gimmicky typeface that can only be used by three '90s dance/rock crossover bands before it turns to jazz. Another nomination would be whatever the standard display font is for this forum. It saves some horizontal space, but it's so narrow and tightly packed, it can be a burden to read. That's why I like Verdana better, because the letterforms are rounder even when it's tiny. Verdana 8-point bold is one of my favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patternoverlap Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 For me, it would be a tossup between Comic Sans and Papyrus. Same for me. Trajan is the movie font and Papyrus is the Jesus font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Drahken Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 For me, it would be a tossup between Comic Sans and Papyrus. Oh god Papyrus, the font ever fucking design client wants or says "is there anything similar to that?" I used to have a serious hage for Times New Roman because there was some bugs associated with it and Canon printing equipment whereby the printer driver won't print any of the punctuation, but that has passed and my hage has subsided. I hate fonts all around though, mainly because I spend too much time paging through fonts with clients who like every font but want it to be a 'little different'.

encey Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 There's this one that used to come with Windows, that I can't remember the name of -- the letter 'I' is fat in the middle and narrower on top and bottom, and it has a kind of triangular shape to all the vertical bars, almost like ... an 'island' look? Lots of restaurants end up using this dumb font. I thought it began with a 'T' but I couldn't find it ... If someone knows what I'm on about, I'll give them a kiss. David Carson NIN album cover typography edit: The letter 'i' in this font has a small circle on top of that fat-middled vertical stroke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericsosh Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Comic Sans is nice when you use it what it's made for: comic speech bubbles. And it can be nice in other situations too. Just because millions of people don't know how to use it, doesn't make it an inherently bad font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
