Pff! Persons… bah!
Attracted to character
I was a graphic designer department manager for many years. Every once in a while we’d get a job for which the customer wanted to see several typeface options. Invariably, we’d throw Payparus, Peignot, Trajan, Brushscript, etc. into the mix and then we’d bet on which font they’d choose.
Literata, such a beauty
If a typeface doesn’t clarify between l,I,|,1 then it’s not my type

I’ll always be a fan of serif over sans serif fonts. I just find them a lot more elegant and pleasing to look at. Also, it’s much more common to see crappy sans serif fonts that make I and l look the same.
As long as l and I look different, I’m happy
☹️
The l is taIIer than the I. lt Iooks good to me
Ome is slightly shorter for me :/
Hmm looks like Computer Modern, the classic Latex typeface. I particularly like the italics on that one. Since switching to Typst I’ve completely fallen for Libertinus Serif, though. Highly recommend it as a more modern Computer Modern replacement.
That’s three fonts.
In a trench coat?
Nerd!
But yeah, true.
Is it just me, or isn’t the last panel just dropping the ball on the joke? Why not have her comment on the serifs or something, if the type joke has already been presented? Baffling
That Regular 400 Italic got enough curves to get me actin’ up
I didn’t know the Font Club meeting was today! Where’s Brick??
The first rule of Font Club is you do not talk about Font Club.
I agree with that guy, I don’t like serif fonts.
They always look old-fashioned and harder to read to me, even when they’re not, LOL.
Yeaaa
I kinda like Futura in print. Enjoyed some books from maybe the 1940s that used it.

I used to like going through interesting fonts, but now I want reasonable Unicode support in a font, and given the immense effort to cover Unicode, there aren’t many out there. Yeah, falling back to other fonts for missing glyphs helps, but it’s not as good.
Probably different if you’re a designer doing one image where you know all the text that you’re gonna be using.
