I use Comics Sans, I use it quite a lot. Even my logo is based on it. But one thing I am so weirded out by is why is it so hated? I use it in my videos, I use it in my art, I use it in my animation, and I don't really get it. Yes, it is a terrible font to display on a document or using it as a primary font but is it really fair to hate Comic Sans for existing? Should we let people use it without screaming at them? What do you think?

Is it because people on geocities used it?
I don't know, but I think most of the hate comes from " COMIC SANS IS SO HARD TO READ ON SMALL TEXT AAAAAA!!!" But thanks for stopping by!

I remember in school, comic sans was used for EVERYTHING, every school sign, every printout the teachers gave us, every notice. I disliked it because as a kid I felt it was condescending, I wanted to be given serious printouts like an adult! Now I quite like it

I don't hate Comic Sans necessarily, but I do dislike its use in the workplace. If I see it in an email or on some type of document at work I do get angry lol Outside of that setting it's fine.
reminds me of that "we work at a fortune 500 company, not a lemonade stand" meme that went around!

It's a font that's good for its designed purpose, just not everything else. But I just think of it as a font like any other, nonetheless.
