Ok, are they fucking kidding with the font?
Who chose it and why?
I can’t even READ half of the words.

Agreed, did somebody just discover the entire pack of Annoying Photoshop Filters over there at the NYT? Yikes.
Ah, I see the offending party is credited at the end:

To use one of their cleverly over-used meme words: Fail.

This blog has some of the meanest most small-minded people ever. Those illustrations are gorgeous! She created the type herself and her other work is equally amazing. You guys need to be nicer and more civilized.

Maybe it’s different for hip people, but for a fuddy duddy like me, the font they used is horrible! It’s very difficult to read.

I can actually read the font.
But none of the words or phrases in the picture at the head of this post mean anything to me — and I spend a lot of time cruising the Internet.
Perhaps some of the words in the original article might be actual buzzwords — but I’m not going to click on a link to the New York Times to find out. I have standards.

“Fail” is really a verb turned into a noun, as in the “FAIL” captions – Those captions are describing the action in present tense. But I guess it is used as a noun – but it’s more than than now… it’s a transcendent state in which group of things, people, and places can exist in many different combinations, containing both action and object. It’s almost sublime on it’s simplicity to dscribe a picture, when used correctly.

edit: I meant to say:
“Fail” ism’y really just a verb turned into a noun…”
