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’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.
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.
