I can attest to the awesomeness that is Comic Sans. No other font existed for me until I reached 7th grade -- that's when I started using the plebeian Times New Roman in 12.

I saw a guy give an academic job interview talk in which his entire powerpoint presentation was in comic sans font. He didn't get the offer.

Are comics even rendered in Comic Sans? I love Comic Sans the way I love Ed Hardy: it helps me easily recognize idiots.

No. It was created for Microsoft Bob.

Look it up if you're not familiar. I cannot adequately describe the horror of Bob.

I used Microsoft Bob a bit when it came out but I think I was too young to understand its purpose.

Nah, Akzidenz Grotesk is my go-to sans serif font. Doesn't come with M$ Word et similia, but ask anyone in the publishing industry, esp. art books.

I feel that Comic Sans and MS Paint are genius.
