I had forgotten how funny I was until
boliviafang put my comment that she had written down in her journal.
If you are not a Font Dork it will probably not only not be funny, but also not make sense.

from
boliviafang's journal:
So the only quote I actually wrote down from that evening is such an industry-specific one (which, admittedly, is part of its humor) that it will only be funny to about three people I know, only two of whom are on LJ: "Papyrus is freakin' everywhere. It's like the new Comic Sans."

Date: 2006-08-15 01:06 am (UTC)You will appreciate the discussion that led to my comment... The menu at Sawatdee had Enviro on it. I was trying to decide what to order when all of a sudden I went, "Killer Bunnies!" Also, the previous evening I had just noticed that P.F. Changs uses Enviro for their logo. But seeing my comment led to

And that's funny about Enviro popping up all over the place. I think it's very interesting how people really identify a brand name with the font. Just goes to show the power of graphic design!

Date: 2006-08-15 03:29 am (UTC)Several of us patients talked to the office assistant and had her speak to him about it. He finally changed it. Now he uses some scripty handwritten-style font I'm not familiar with as the headline and Arial as the body font. Thank goodness, now we can actually READ what he's giving us! LOL
