[sebas9854]

I still can't understand, after this, WHY THE FUCK DOES PEOPLE USE COMIC SANS?

[stingcos]

@sebas9854 shut up, no one uses it.

Helvetica is the Devil

[mcpartridgeboy]

Helvetica is quality, only seconded by avant guard !!! stunning type faces really neet well designed letters, and unlike those ugily groovy fonts can be used for sooo much things !

I am a highly awarded member of the creative class. As a branding consultant, I am conflicted by my work. I spend the better portion of my day fostering corporate clients whose aim is to visually proliferate every aspect of your life. These companies are driven by market share and have a low regard for consumers beyond their ability to purchase product.

[HenryTPrice]

oh wow no one cares

[watchman91]

Helvetica equals longevity because its a typeface that is not outspoken or easy to pigeonhole into one particular era.

Its safe = boring, but I like it never the less.

[Dizzle102]

lol, i dont mind Helvetica, infact i like a lot of simplicity in my designs, so i use helvetica and other san serifs a lot, i like Gils sans better though, umm, has anyone seen those I hate helvetica t-shirts? or something similar? haha

[pandora5mix]

Helvetica sold out man, it sold out... still, it's my preffered sans seriff.

[think76]

Myriad makes me vomit.

[riacharda]

I like Helvetica a lot; especially Helvetica Nueue :). They should make a movie on Myriad Pro

[FUSER2K07]

i saw a program on channel 4 ages ago about typography and helvetica my mum watched too once u seen this font it really is everywear in london espically

[cbtcafe]

Go see this movie. Rent it. Netflix it. Check it out from the library. Even those who work with type every day will learn so much. What a great documentary.

[cinecyclist]

f*** helvetica!! snob corporate whores!

[timeintransit]

you are an idiot sir.

[picaae]

comic sans is even worse, come on!

helvetica is just a general decision...

anyway the movie is great!

you really have to see it, if you want to understand modern design

[jamiewindsor]

Helvetica is quite nice but try using Comic Sans. It's a bit more fun and friendly.

[aeolus925]

Comic Sans sucks. I saw this movie and afterwards my friend remarked, "Imagine a movie about the anniversary of the creation of Comic Sans: it would be these same designers, but all of them swearing for 80 minutes."

[jamiewindsor]

Oh my god! 6 negative point!

...it was only a joke.

I once saw a newspaper headline 'A' board saying "family of 5 die in motorway smash" set in Comic Sans. A little inappropriate I thought.

[SoManyDumbPeople]

It was a bit too deadpan for most people to get, I s'pose.

[staticavecsilence]

man that was obviously a joke. people have no sense of humor!

[KeenanChad]

Helvetica = Whore of the Design world

[unrest655321]

Helvetica = The Beatles of typefaces

[karenadepp]

[unrest655321]

[kronicred]

Helvetica = Comfort.

[blois]
