  I don't really find this worth QBN certification to be quite honest. Most of these "statements" are both not recognizable and hardly entertaining or an invitation to engage in thought about these typefaces. to me, they seem highly speculative and hardly serve any purpose worthy my time.

  but nice try.

  • Very well put.– silentseven1/4

    this truly deserves a +1– Gucci2/4

    +2– Meeklo3/4

    Agreed.– decisionman4/4

  Hardly hidden meanings, rather random suggestions!

• doesnotexist

  it's like the naive man's opinion of typefaces.

  • Aye...– flavorful1/3

    Is that because these are all he has ever been exposed to for the most part? Or just trying to reach the masses with a very quick put together attempt at humour?– flavorful2/3

    quick put together attempt at humour? I mean 95% are system fonts basically.– flavorful3/3

  No offense to anyone..
  But I think this post should fit better on the pvn.
  It substracts importance from all the other EC selections.

  Just saying, not that big deal really..
  Carry on

  This might have been an interesting exploration should he have had some worthwhile insight about the typefaces. But he doesn't.

  And that red highly distracting from the "message".
