Some people think it's the worst font ever. I like it. Let's fight about it!

It's owned and distributed by teh evil Microsoft empire, therefor it's a loathsome abomination that kills puppies in its free time and makes baby Jesus cry.  On the other hand, Apple's Chalkboard is made of pure awesome sauce, cures breast cancer, and has been known to cause spontaneous orgasms in its users.

Good for comics
Bad for english reports

Worthless for anything internet, and looks jive. I voted ugly.

Huh? People are fighting over fonts? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comic_Sans#Ban_Comic_Sans_movement

There's even an ongoing movement?! Damn, that's... so... very... STUPID! It's a freaking font people!  :roll:

Also, I fail to see much, if any noticeable difference between Comic Sans and Chalkboard. As far as looks, they are pretty much the same ie: so so. I guess if one was a livid apple fanboy, they might think it's the best thing ever, just because it came from Apple.  [-(

Why the hell would Apple choose to mimic a much hated font, and furthermore why is the M$ version the only one with a movement to get it banned?  :-k

I can understand the hate for m$, as that is well deserved. Seriously though, of all the reasons to hate M$, a font should be far down the list I'd imagine.

This "max-level forum psycho" (:lol:) destroyed TWO PC Engine groups in rage: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook "Because Chris 'Shadowland' Runyon!," then the other by Aaron Nanto "Because Le NightWolve!" Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together... Both times he blamed the Aarons in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!
