    That’s cool I like how it overlaps with the other traits, and I never got the hate for comic sans when it’s used to convey the appropriate tone (break room notice board vs official comms)

      I think the hate is that when used in the wrong context it can be offensive. Like a war memorial or something. The other “common” fonts aren’t like that.

        The opening of Hot Fuzz cut a gag where Angel made Word Art signs for various departments. Faux-3D Comic Sans “Sexual Assault” was not a great introduction.
