    Man, I was all about this video until they made Comic Sans the hero. Comic Sans should've been a whore. A dirty, dirty whore.

    Um, Comic Sans is the inbred idiot down the road who voted for Bush and uses IE. So NOT a superhero... And Arial is not a redneck! Arial is reserved and polite and diplomatic. Wingdings was awesome, though. And Times New Roman being the head? Very apropos.

    Yeah, I agree with ads above. The idea is pretty good, but the shaky grasp of the actual status of fonts kills it completely. Plus "Haha, he French surrender!" is so hack and so old that it's gone once around from hack to ironic standby to hack again - which is the worst kind of hackery there is. Lame.

    er, Arial isn't a redneck, that was Arial NARROW.

    Great video :D

    Ha ha! yes awesome stuff. Wingdings is the best one for sure. Comic sans was a super hero because its basically the font thats used in comics books, which are usually about super heroes. Arial narrow is a redneck because he's "narrow minded".

    Ok for the explanation of comic sans being the super hero, but I still hate comic sans, and curlz. Tho' I'm sad they didnt bring in a bit of papyrus (that horrible thing that calls itself a font), he should have been the villain :)

    I think I'm an Arial Narrow. WingDings was effin hilarious.
