Times New Roman
The default, the best.
Garamond
ftw
^5
GARAMOND
Hells yeah.
I liked something called
space toaster, or electric space toaster when I was 15. Entirely unreadable.
Arial
Standard.
courier
courier new.
i really wanna see that doc on
Helvetica
arial or tahoma
times new roman is so standard, i like to erm...rebel.
I <3 Tahoma also
i reprinted all my CVs in tahoma
and i aint got a job in AGES.
Nah
Times New Roman is just so up itself. It's all like "Look at me! I have serifs! You could probably find me in some mansion in a 19th Century novel!" FUCK OFF.
And why "Roman", anyway?
What the fuck's Rome got to do with it? Times *New* Roman as well. What are they trying to say? That we live in new Roman times? That the Roman Empire's about to make a comeback? How about the British Empire? How about God Save The Fucking Queen Sans? Now *that's* a font I could get behind.
'Roman' because it comes from Roman carved letterforms
with serifs and varying stroke thickness. Like the stuff they carved latin into the sides of temples with.
Typography=<3
Georgia
Tahoma
or
Verdana
easy
^ Both of these.
I lean toward Tahoma though.
^this!
verdana
is the chuck norris of typefaces. no question about it.
Agreed
.
arial looks standard
word looks like essays i used to write at uni.
so: georgia.
LOL
times new roman.
not Word. besides, i used wordperfect, because it was the only thing i had, and then couldnt read anyone else's essay that got emailed to me, because they'd used word, and i had such an old version i couldnt open it. :(
Clarendon Black
The sexiest font in the univvvverse
I personally love
... futura. As does film-maker Wes Anderson:
http://www.marksimonson.com/article/87/royal-tenenbaums-world-of-futura
Wow
How interesting. I wish I has noticed that.
German Bold Itallic (named after the obscure Kylie track
she once produced back in the late 90s... when I thought she actually had 'cool' factor going)...
punkassbitch
or psycho
none of this boring web page/type s*it you lot have posted!
lick my flicks y'all
:D
Garamond these days
For a long while it was Trebuchet, though, and before that: Century Gothic. Before that 'Mondine'.
heh
keyboard plaque.
Words alone do not do it justice
The best font in the ENTIRE world...

lolic
sans
comic sans.
i like things that produce irrational hatred in people.
<3
Probably not relevant
But I worked for a while in a mental health unit, and one GP always used to write referral letters in Comic Sans font. Words like "risk of self-harm" do not belong in such a typeface.
Yeah, I've mentioned this before :D
I think they all do it - you know, in case the harshness of Arial or Times New Roman is enough to send you over the edge.
Palatino Linotype.
mine
pagana sans by mart anderson

OCR A Extended
Makes it look like my words were written by a robot.
Got a soft spot for Bodoni MT and Sylfaen is very pretty :)
All my work stuff is Arial size 10, can't stand Times New Roman or Comic bloody Sans.
NATIVE
:)
tahooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooma
.
1. Trade Gothic Bold Condensed
2. Aharoni
3. Futura
sans serif ftw
I can't stand...
..Times New Roman
Mrs Eaves is my favorite Serif font
(or Baskerville(which Mrs Eaves is a derivative of) .
Helvetica is my favorite Sans Serif
I do have a soft spot for good old Gil Sans too.
It's always good to have one of each.
...
Bank Gothic, and whatever the new Microsoft Office default is - much better than Times New Bullcrap. Serifs can kiss my black ass.
..
Courier New
Just the three
Calibri, Cambria and I've always had a soft spot for Franklin Gothic Medium.
The first two work well togther for bodies and titles respectively.
georgia
and palatino linotype.
i have something of an irrational hatred for courier.
georgia
or garmond
Tahoma
Or Verdana.
I use century gothic a lot
usually I tend to favour serif fonts though.
