    I personally love wingdings. Because you can just screw around with people for hours who have no idea what you're doing.

    Comic Sans is extremely infamous, and like Vsauce said, it's not Comic Sans' fault, it's the fault of it's overuse. It's good for some things, like comic books, little informal things, and for dyslexic readers due to its lack of serifs, and other things, but it's bad for advertising, and very serious things.
