  ^ six fonts that piss people off

  starting with the IKEA shift to Verdana.

  

  Check the comment (about IKEA) below that article:

  "Who cares? I just like the look or I don't. I like the look of the 2010 cover better than the 2009, but that could be color or placement just as easily as the font. The only people who really notice are the pros anyway."

  Yes, and good design makes you look without you even realizing it. Let's all just have a snack, a beer, and keep on keepin' on.

  “A man’s penis and balls are very beautiful things and the power to see this beauty is not confined to the opposite sex. The shape of the head of a man’s erect penis is very excellent in the mouth. There is no doubt about this. I have often wondered – now I know.”

  -Eric Gill, June 22, 1927

  Comic sans is far more immoral than the things Gill did.
