This fucken guy right here.
Went to pick up my service truck w its new decal/wrap design. My employers son who is firmly Gen X, had the lettering done with comic fucking sans. A joke on four wheels but he likes it so.
What a clown, but if im the one driving it i guess that makes me the clown. I dont get paid enough for this shit.
I don't get the hate on the font. It feels like everyone was told to hate it and made it a part of their personality. The font is fine.
It's fine, it's just not a very professional looking font unless you're an eclectic restaurant looking for a menu font.
For personal use it's great, but for a professional setting the very fact that it's generally considered unserious is just bad for marketing
It was very overused, mainly in cases it shouldn’t have been used at all.
It’s a “fun”, “childish”, comic-like font. And it was used in hospitals, restaurant menus, business logos etc.
Seeing a childish font saying serious shit is unnerving and seems like the people who wrote the message either don’t take the matter seriously or are clueless.
It's awful because it conjures up past trauma of 1990s-era church flyers plastered with shitty stock MS Works clipart, and the style has only permeated outward from there.
As for the typeface itself, it does have a redeeming quality: it is one of the more readable (OS default) fonts for people with dyslexia.
