It's a horrible font for the body of a text. Serifs help readability.

I have no strong opinion on this fascinating and important issue.

I find sans-serif easier on the eyes.

That's the first funny one of those I have seen in maybe a year!  :hug:

Of course, it is funny because it is a pet peeve of mine - the computer teachers teach the kids to use all the bullshit powerpoint bells and whistles, so the kids go nuts and use them all.  The result, of course, is confusing, slow, and boring crap.

I had a huge argument at work because of a marketing department decision to go with sans serifed fonts for our publications. It was a slow day.
" SIR – I must commend you on some of your recent obituaries. I was delighted to read of the deaths of Foday Sankoh (August 9th), and Uday and Qusay Hussein (July 26th). Do you take requests? "

Oh yeah, I did that all the time my first two years in High school.  :blush:
Goofy pictures, sound clips from movies, ugly backgrounds, etc. I did have all the info required on there, of course.
