Well, if there’s a statement in Comic Sans, it is obviously wrong... We all know how evil Comic Sans is...

I mean, really, why would a reporter ever think about putting that little detail in? I’ve never seen a news item mention the font used for a button before.

It used to be very common in desktop publishing magazines.

I can’t see any homo going straight for anything less than 36 point Arial Bold.

Comic Sans font: using it is a well-known design crime; slipping that unnecessary-to-the-story tidbit in was 100% slam. As in, “Comic Sans is lame, therefore whoever uses that font is lame.”

"I mean, really, why would a reporter ever think about putting that little detail in? I’ve never seen a news item mention the font used for a button before."

And you'll never see it again. The purpose, as we know, was ridicule.
