I use Arial. “It’s the exception.” See my theory is nobody uses Arial because everyone uses it. Therefore nobody uses it. So when I use it, it’s like no one had ever used it.

But Myriad, Papyrus, and Comic Sans are by far my favorite.

I also have to agree that papyrus is a horrible font. I mean how can a font be as equally disgusting as Rosie O’Donnell in a bikini. I prefer to see it on one place only, and that is at the bottom of my shoe so I can continuously stomp on it.

Perhaps the White House should adopt Comic Sans as their official font – it would fit, but most of it isn’t funny.

As a teacher, I use Comic Sans for worksheets and so forth because it looks like legible handwriting.

I wouldn’t use it for anything else, though, and I agree that it’s inappropriate for a business presentation.

It seems like it’s up to Microsoft to release good fonts with Windows and Office, since most people aren’t going to drop $20 or $30 on a font, especially if not everyone else has it. I haven’t heard good things about Arial or other MS favs, either, from the typography community, so hopefully Vista will come with a better set.

Oh, and Papyrus – very cool font, but not very useful even if you’re using it for logos because it’s so light – getting it to look bold is downright impossible. I mean, how am I supposed to promote a gladiatorial competition or an archaeological discovery if I can’t even use bold text?
