I'm into graphic design so fonts are super important to me.

My favourites are modern-looking fonts such as Segoe UI, Helvetica, and Futura.

My least favourites are as follows:

Curlz


Papyrus


Bleeding Cowboy


Brush Script


On the contrary, I do like Times New Roman, only when it is italicized.

What about you guys? Discuss and share fonts.

I only know three. Times New Roman, Arial Black, and Comic Sans.

I dislike them all.

It's overhated, but I'm not gonna lie, I use it too often for my own good. 100% of the time it's for my dank memes.

Times New Roman & that old English/Gothic style are the best.

I love Christine

"If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. He will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; In proportion as he simplifies his life, the laws of the universe will appear less complex, and solitude will not be solitude, nor poverty poverty, nor weakness weakness." - Henry David Thoreau

Comic Sans doesn't even look that bad, not like I can tell fuck all difference from these fonts anyway. I just want it to be easy to read.

The main issue is that it's inappropriate 99% of the time. See post above me xD

Comic Sans only looks good in Children's books or homework.

My favourite font is Calibri. I always use it when writing up a document in Word or Wordpad. It's simple and very easy on the eyes.
I also like the font used in the old school Notepad. Not sure what it's called.

Bank Gothic Medium has been a favorite of mine for a while when doing graphic work, but before that and still now, I usually just use whatever default font a given program opens with. I don't really dislike any fonts, but I do avoid using ones that are excessively fancy, look like scribbles or anything grungy-feeling. Essentially, fonts that I can't read.

I like Tempus Sans ITC.

Can't say I really hate a font. Fancy cursives can be annoying to read and the standard Times New Romans are boring.

Around 2009-ish I had a really awful habit of using Visitor tt2 brk whenever I possibly could with signatures, and occasionally going for fonts that were way too stylized. Visitor I still kind of like, especially when adding borders around the text itself.

On the off chance people don't know what Visitor is

Favorites: Comic Sans, Century Gothic, Jokerman, Tahoma

I also hate the fonts that put the letters too close to eachother (as a result the letters look like they were squeezed together).

okay. so I both love and hate comic sans. it's great for meme purposes but really shouldn't be used in schools or for businesses or anything that exists beyond the internet.
times new roman is plain and it makes me angry that it's the standard for essays
chiller is also a terrible font. it should be more bolded. it looks more like someone just scratched out some words with a paperclip rather than blood written on the walls.

as for favorites, I like high tower text when I'm writing more formal things
corbel is a good alternative to comic sans because it has the same vibe but it doesn't burn your eyes
I always go for bradley hand when I'm typing something that's supposed to look like handwriting

I sound like a font elitist and I apologize

I like century gothic the most, I think they're beautiful, simple, and clean.


Other than that I also like Copperplate gothic, Courier, Collona MT, bauhaus 93, and Castellar.
Especially Castellar for the fancy looks.


For the least favorite font in the 'regular' font family, nothing is more painful to see than Curlz.

Uhh... no. I know more than one place where using Comic Sans is an automatic fail, no matter how good is the homework done.
children's homework I mean
Like in their worksheets, it can be the font used to write out "what is 1 apple plus 2 apples?"
