The Comic Sans font was developed for it but never actually got to using it...
I'm somewhat surprised when someone hasn't heard of Microsoft Bob.. It was fairly famous for being unpopular back in the day. But they only sold it for a fairly short time, because so few people wanted it. Microsoft Bob was a Windows shell/user interface that made your computer look like a house - You could navigate to different sections of Microsoft Bob like going to different rooms in a house for performing different types of tasks. I never used Bob myself, but I remember when it came out and reading about it.

Damn... ran across my copy of Bob the other day and almost installed it on one of my VM's. Now I GOTTA install that sucker!
What did he do to me?
He wasted like 2 years of my life with my misinformed relatives who made me do free computer support for them. THAT is what he did to me.
The Comic Sans font was developed for it but never actually got to using it...This, I did not know. But it explains everything, and now I'm even more convinced it needs to stay dead and buried along with all those ET: The Extraterrestrial Atari 2600 video games they dug up.
A lot of people are unaware of the birth of the Comic Sans font and why so many people hate it...

I don't remember Bob, but I do remember Clippy, and have a vague memory of there being a dog, too. I thought Clippy was cool at first but got tired of him/her pretty quick. :)

I don't remember a connection with the font and Bob either. I don't see a problem with the font. It works rather well for the posters or announcements I need to create at my shop. I do however, add drop shadow to make the letters pop a little bit.
i fucking hate comic sans. i dont know how people can like it and think it should be used everywhere.
my boss fucks with me and prints out notes to me with comic sans.

Hehe this sounds like something I would do if I knew a coworker hated it :P
I hate odd numbers and my girlfriend insists on setting the climate control in the car to an odd number. I guess at the end of the day we all like to mess with people.

I never use Comic Sans, but I don't really see what's so bad about it that people hate.

Same here. I think it is like all the pineapple pizza hate. It is something that is cool to hate for some reason.
Long life pineapple pizza!

It's *just* a font. There are whole lot of more important things to stress over. But a font is not one of them. ;)
It really just resembles the printed style used in comic books. If anything, comic sans rips off of that.
my boss fucks with me and prints out notes to me with comic sans.
He probably does it because he knows that you will react. Why not realiate and print replies using something like:
i'm not stressing over it or losing sleep. i have to wear a mask in
the workplace for a virus i am not afraid of. lots of us are getting headaches and feeling like shit. THAT stresses me out.

that is exactly what it was meant for.
he's just doing it as a joke. i joke around with him too.
A lot of brand new clothes are treated with formaldehyde. I wouldn't be surprised that some cloth masks are the source of discomforts like a headache because of the chemicals they are treated with during manufacturing. Unlike a piece of clothing that is generally away from you and something the skin can generally protect you from, a mask is a constant source of the chemicals to the lungs.
yeah i know this and that's a very good point. i just washed it and i'm letting it air dry. a lot of people think that new clothes smell is nice but it's actually formaldehyde.

Re: Re: Microsoft Bob Fans site...
Whenever I buy brand-new clothes, I always like to wash them before I wear them. And I've had new clothes that I think actually smell weird before I wash them.
