Note to self: Must update self-censor. It's not working properly

Got a handout in English. I can't just say it, I can't even just think it. I shout it out:

"Oh, god, not Comic sans!"

*pause*

Professor: What?
Me: *thinking: oops... * Um... the font?
Professor: Well, I like that font.
Me: *headdesk*

It also seems to be the Official Font of the Brooklyn College Library.

I need to get one of those stickers for my laptop. That'd be nice.

I think "Comic Sans" is the official font of educators everywhere.

When I was teaching (I only did that for one year) several teachers emailed me copies of assignments and handouts that they'd created - most of them were in Comic Sans. I hate Comic Sans. I systematically changed EVERY document to Arial.

Just as friendly and non-threatening, and infinitely less irritating.

Comic sans has no place on handouts. Or warning signs. Or legal letters....

...or med school applications...
