I've always thought DIN's lowercase letters look ungainly. The capitals seem more well-considered imho. Some alternatives:

I'm not telling you what my alternative to Din is. It was my gift to you all, and it was rudely thrown back in my face, like chimps flinging their faeces at the zoo.
That's faeces, not faces.
