Higgs Boson in Comic Sans
July 8th, 2012
Yes, the announcement that the elusive so-called "God particle," the Higgs boson, had been found was made in Comic Sans.
Comic Sans struck back in an imaginary monologue in McSweeney's:
People love me. Why? Because I’m fun. I’m the life of the party. I bring levity to any situation. Need to soften the blow of a harsh message about restroom etiquette? SLAM. There I am. Need to spice up the directions to your graduation party? WHAM. There again. Need to convey your fun-loving, approachable nature on your business’ website? SMACK. Like daffodils in motherf*cking spring.
