Today's Extreme Font Dork Moment

We find this project so pleasing, we cannot even tell you. Let that be a lesson to you: the Cooper family is ugly AND profligate! Thanks to Author-friend Adam Heine for the link.

Yes! This is why all the cool lawyers use Garamond. (Of course, now that I'm not laywering, I have to use Georgia instead, because Garamond is fugly in italics. Courts usualy require attorneys to underline rather than italicize, so for that profession the concern is largely moot.)
That guy has to have the mother of all hand cramps and one mean-looking blister.
I didn't even know they used Bic pens inside printers.
Impact is mince on most everything including Lolcat pictures. But good thing this guy did the test so we can be assured of this. I shall use Impact on work documents when I am angry and bitter at management.
I don't care - I'm writing my entire query in LOLanguage so I have to use Impact.
"U Sell Buuk LULZ!!1!"
Garamond? -- never! The guy shouldn't have gone to all this trouble. I just print a complete ms out and see how much ink is left in the cartridge. :-)
I tell you, you can squeeze several fulls out of a cartridge with Courier! (that's probably why they tell us to use it)
This one was cool. Hear, hear on the Cooper font family. Oh, and Adobe Garamond works really well when type setting books; it's nice to see it economizes on ink too.
Funnily, Papyrus might have done well 'cause it has all those niches and holes in it.
I only want to write in this new font I found...'rage italic'.
It sounds angry.
The book industry should have never moved away from screenplay-friendly Courier. This is why Hollywood makes more money.
It would be fun to put this up in a store and see many people follow the arrows to get a sample.
I wonder what bet that guy lost . . .
I never considered myself a font dork, but that link got me way too happy. That's so cool. Plus, it gives me another reason to hate Impact, which IMO is the most obnoxious frequently-used font.
I'm amazed Brush Script is more efficient than a lot of basic serif fonts.
This is so PRETTY and DELIGHTFUL and I am so psyched. Thanks!
I want to know where he got ballpoint pens that write on vertical surfaces so well.
eye twitch. liking this too much.
