    I remember when this came out and thinking they were guys I would find really precious and when I reread the article things like this piss me off:
    (“With this typeface,” Amzalag says, “everything looks very cute. Even a bad poem looks cool.”)

    It just tells me they equalize everything, flatten everything in order to arbitrary rearrange mere aesthetics according to whim and less.
    Its a viewpoint but I find ultimately dulling and without contribution.

    or this which describes what I eman exactly: "To create the font Cesar, they commissioned a small child who did not know how to write to draw the alphabet."

    • the type face isn't the information a poem conveys unless you are blind to abstraction and meaningcapsize
