The Worst Font in the World

Well, the title may be an overstatement, as there are worse fonts out there.
But none seem to be so abused as Comic Sans. Once you get to know it’s signature lines and curves, you see it absolutely everywhere.
That in itself should be reason enough not to use it. If you want your message to stand out from the crowd, try using a font that’s different to what everyone else uses.
From a design perspective, it’s bad news unless your under 12 year of age. And it’s harder to read than most other common fonts.
