The Failure of Comic Sans

A friend shared this article with me about the failure of Comic Sans. I found it very amusing and wanted to share it: Typeface Inspired by Comic Book Has Become a Font of Ill Will

"Vincent Connare designed the ubiquitous, bubbly Comic Sans typeface, but he sympathizes with the world-wide movement to ban it.

Mr. Connare has looked on, alternately amused and mortified, as Comic Sans has spread from a software project at Microsoft Corp. 15 years ago to grade-school fliers and holiday newsletters, Disney ads and Beanie Baby tags, business emails, street signs, Bibles, porn sites, gravestones and hospital posters about bowel cancer."
