Re:Bullshit
The best way to assassinate characters is to use the Comic Sans font.

More is good, but
...we really just need one less.

Cool!
Can they kill Comic Sans too?

Re:So what do you use instead?
http://www.bancomicsans.com/fonts.html The site that started it all offers quite a few alternatives.

Direct link to website
Again, failure in the article summary. Direct link: http://bancomicsans.com/ We don't need news sites to tell us around something when we can just directly go to it.

DRM fonts now!Finally, an opportunity to deface Comic-Sans!

Re:GreatJust what we need
... the ability for websites to easily create their own font, ignoring the hundreds of years that have gone into perfecting typography. Yes, resulting in tons of inter-office e-mails being formatted in Comic Sans. -

Is that PDF written in Comic Sans ?
Just say no ! http://bancomicsans.com/ -
Re:I found a major bug!!!

Re:No
I might be able to take the site a little more seriously if they didn't use Comic Sans so liberally.

Re:Spelling
Seriously, how can you flame Comic Sans without including a link to Ban Comic Sans?

Re:Honestly...
Not to mention, NOTHING should EVER AGAIN use MS Comic Sans.

Re:It's time....
I took a quick look at the site you mention. What immediately got my attention: the green button on the right that says "NMCI 101". Check it. See? SEE? The font... THE FUCKIN' FONT IS COMIC SANS! As if running Windows on battleships was not enough evidence that complete morons are managing the military...

They're obviously holding back the big guns then - they could do a lot worse...

Re:Anybody out there?
OMG, my eyes. How can you advertise a page using comic sans?

Re:Comic Sans
There is a website devoted to this cause: BanComicSans.com. You can order shirts, hats, mugs, or download a flyer to post in your cube at work like I did. It is hard to take emails from upper management seriously when the default font is Comic Sans with a textured background.

Re:The RIAA is irrelevant.
You want criticism? Here you go:
1) Get rid of that background picture. The text is unreadable. Or at least brighten it up so it acts more like a watermark than a full picture.
2) Regarding "Past Gigs": http://bancomicsans.com/home.html
I like this part:
"The design of the typeface is, in itself, its voice." "Comic Sans as a voice conveys silliness, childish naivete, irreverence, and is far too casual for such a purpose. It is analogous to showing up for a black tie event in a clown costume."
That's about the two most glaring fuckups that would drive me away without looking again. Seriously dude, what were you thinking? Did you actually try to _read_ the text on your own page? -
Re:Getting with the Times New Roman
Apparently, not everyone.

Re:Whoops
I think the subject was supposed to read, "Why I hate PDF files."
And the subtitle should've been "Why I use this most annoying font ever, Comic." There's even a couple of sites tributed to this magnificent font.
There's a load of much more readable fonts. Of course, if you don't want people to read your text then go for it!

Made in the USA!
The funny part is that the image with the t-shirts shown at http://bancomicsans.com/image/bcsbycafepress512x2
5 6.jpg has the text "MADE IN THE USA" as a sales argument.
Well, Comic Sans was made in the USA as well :-) -
Why I hate comic sans
It's pretty funny, although I almost stopped reading when I saw that font...

Comic Sans is.....
NOT A FONT. ok? Repeat after me, Comic Sans Is Not a Font! In 1995 Microsoft released the font Comic Sans originally designed for comic book style talk bubbles containing informational help text. Since that time the typeface has been used in countless contexts from restaurant signage to college exams to medical information. These widespread abuses of printed type threaten to erode the very foundations upon which centuries of typographic history are built. While we recognize the font may be appropriate in a few specific instances, our position is that the only effective means of ending this epidemic of abuse is to completely ban Comic Sans. http://bancomicsans.com/home.html
