Tech Startup or Pokemon? »
urrg one wrong!!
just because I’m not as good with the newer pokemon
I got one wrong because they misspelled “Gligar” and made me thing it was a SNEAKY TRICK QUESTION and that “Gilgar” actually was a startup.
This assumption of mine was false.
Along the same lines: Web 2.0 or Star Wars Character? (from wayyyy back in the day) and Cheese or Font.
Basically
I want there to be some kind of central authority whose job it is to get rid of, um, just about ALL the fonts.
Yes. ALL THE FONTS. Because first of all, we cannot handle the responsibility of having them. We just don’t know how. That has been made abundantly clear to me. And secondly, people, I’m telling you. We really only need about three, anyway.
I know this kind of fascism probably doesn’t sound appealing to most. But dammit, my eyes are tired.
Sounds good to me. One cursive, one each sans-serif and serif, and maybe something for high-impact situations; headlines, movie posters. That should be sufficient, right?
