LMNOP: America's Most Fonted: The 7 Worst Fonts
http://lmnop.blogs.com/lauren/2006/10/americas_most_f.html

...and was somewhat chagrined to see this one listed!

Quote:

4. Papyrus

Papyrus is all over the place; I've seen it in the IM profiles of many kinds of people, usually guys. I think the goal with Papyrus is to look kind of scholarly, but let's be honest: you're not using AIM to network with other Nobel winners.
Common abusers: College-aged guys who want a font that's not boring but also not, you know, all gay and cursive and sh**.
Probable famous user: Brad Pitt

Hmph. I've always liked papyrus, even before I was a Browncoat. People are stupid.

I must have really bad taste, because I tend to use most of the 7 worst fonts a lot - including Papyrus.

Hmm...I always like Papyrus. I was suprised that Windings, or Webdings or whatever it is wasn't on there. There was always some smart-alec knobhead in high school that insisted on sending you eMails in that stupid font, forcing you to to have to edit the text just to read the damn thing...

Well, at least the Serenity logo isnt't straight-up Papyrus. It's been tweaked a bit. But while I agree Papyrus is overused and getting a bit tired, I think that's just because it's so dern pretty.

Hmmm, Id never realized it was paprus or whatever. I most be very unimaginitive, either I use cursive or Times New Roman.
