The reason Sans and Papyrus got their names is because these fonts were so infamous.

Penguin With A Mac 10 apparently my friend isn’t the one who has trouble comprehending text. The comic sans is easier for her to read because of its formatting being especially dyslexia friendly. She changes her essay to standard tnr before she submits but during the actual composition has an easier time if it’s comic sans. Don’t be a jerk just because it’s trendy to hate a font, you sheep.

"Foundue" doesn't exist in french. Maybe "Fondue" is what you're looking for, and it's a dish consisting of croûtons dipped in a pot of molten cheese and white wine. The french word for foundry is simply "Fonderie". But in reality, the term "Font" is derived from the french "Fonte" which designates the action of founding a batch of letters
Interesting but it’s not like theyre going to see this 9 years later

Here's comic sans being all cute and friendly, and then this cold corporate font wanders over and spoils all the fun...
Time for a fun fact that everyone in this comment section has probably said by now: Comic Sans is actually used by a lot of people to make sure they're not too hard on themselves (so obviously a lot of the writers using this struggle with that) when writing (ofc they change the font when they send it out) because let's be honest it's kind of hard to be hard on yourself when you're writing in the goofiest font in the universe.
I started using this myself and it honestly has made me more confident when writing, I can't say I've finished any stories using this method but that's more a lack of motivation when the initial excitement dies down :/

When playing Undertale I realized that Comic Sans was a neat easy to read font unlike Papyrus (Another prominent font in that game even more so the Comic Sans) in fact one point at the very end of the Papyrus Date where he "Confesses his Feelings" I was having trouble reading even though it was using Black/White contrasting (More so on repeat runs due to eyesight)
This does not change my opinion on Sans and Papyrus the skeletons

Hey, Vsauce. Michael here.
Text.
The printed word. Vitally important, but never naked.
When words and letters are printed, they have to wear the clothing of a typeface. A font family. We don't always think of it this way, but you cannot type without using a typeface.
Even right now, here on UA-cam, when you leave a comment, you are communicating your own words, your own thoughts, but through the visual styling of someone else - the creator up Arial.
In these Vsauce videos, Jake, Kevin, myself and others use Alsina, because it most closely resembles the handwriting of Nik Guinta, the creator of the Vsauce logo.
Now, thinking of typefaces as fashion for letters is not a new idea.
Adrian Frutiger famously said that the work of a type designer is just like the work of dressmaker. Or, as Alan Fletcher put it, a typeface is an alphabet in in a straitjacket. Some typefaces have serifs and some don't. Some are famously neutral, while others are silly or ugly.
But one typeface is so silly and so ugly and so popular that it has arguably become the most hated font of all time.
Comic Sans.
People who consider themselves discerning designers scoff at its ubiquity, usually wielded by amatures who don't know better. It was recently reported that on Twitter, the only thing complained about more often than Justin Bieber, but less frequently than airlines, is Comic Sans.
Online you can play a Kill Comic Sans game. And the website Ban Comic Sans provides a gigantic list of hand-written looking fonts that they would prefer you use instead.
Comic Sans is so hated it's almost pulled a 360 and is cool again, ironically. David OReilly's amazing t-shirts, for example.
But irony isn't the only thing Comic Sans has going for it. The British Dyslexia Association considers Comic Sans a particularly good font for children who have trouble reading letters because of its easily distinguishable characters, like the letter A.
For most of our history, books and signs had to be hand written, often meticulously and expensively copied by hand. There were no printers, no typesetters.
If you wanted a book, someone had to literally write by hand the whole book for you. But Gutenberg changed that by popularizing interchangeable type. He modelled his tight pieces after the handwriting of scribes at the time, producing what could be called the very first font ever textura.
Later on, typesetters in Italy realized that words could be slanted and remain legible and readable, but take up less vertical space, so more could be printed on a single page. That's why it's called italics. Not because italics means slanted or oblique, but because of where it was invented - Italy.
Metal type pieces had to be cast from molten metal in foundries, which get their name from the French fondue, which means something that has been melted. And so it's because of the word fondue that we now call a collection of characters within a typeface a font.
When setting type, typesetters kept their type pieces in cases. The most commonly used pieces were kept in the lower case for easy access, whereas capitals were kept just a little above in the upper case.
Back to Comic Sans. Comic Sans was designed in 1994 by Vincent Connare. According to the BBC, Melinda Gates herself asked Connare to design a font for the cartoon dog in Microsoft Bob to speak in. And so, within three days, Connare had designed Comic Sans, based on hand drawn fonts from comic books. It never actually made it into the final version of Microsoft Bob, but was subsequently released as a font choice on so many Microsoft products that it became what it is today.
Million of amateurs now had access to this font, which seemed simple and cute and became popular on things like homemade birthday cards, but also in less appropriate situations. For instance, on an official Canadian coin, or on a gravestone. Because of things like that, Comic Sans has amassed a lot of haters. But it was never intended to be used so often or in such inappropriate situations.
And so in reality, the fault may lie with us, the typers.
Comic Sans doesn't disappoint people.
People disappoint people.
Another way to think of it is this. Discerning type aficionados may recognize Comic Sans so quickly because it is a threat. Type design is a specialized discipline, but now anybody with a computer can take a stab at it without your approval. They don't need you. To be sure, Comic Sans, objectively speaking isn't really that well designed according to the fundamentals of type design.
David Kadavy has a brilliant explanation of this in his "Why You Hate Comic Sans." He points out that it's unbalanced and not very well kerned.
Comic Sans is certainly not a calculated, precise font liked Trajan. But it's not organic, like real handwriting. Instead, it lies within the uncanny valley. This concept often comes up in robotics.
The more human something gets, the cuter it becomes and the more we like it, until its almost human but not quite. At this point, things become creepy, almost scary. Perhaps Comic Sans exists in that same area, typographically speaking.
But that said, the screens that Comic Sans was originally designed to appear on, were typically aliased, and as Kadavy points out, compared to fonts like Garamond, Comic Sans does really well here.
That is how we should think about Comic Sans. A pragmatic font, a font that worked remarkably well in its era and exists today as one of the most recognizable relics of one of the most important design revolutions in history. Books used to be painstakingly copied by hand. Now later, you could design a story or an idea, but the final look really just came down to what a few typesetters could do.
Today, almost anyone can dabble in typography and that is an amazing thing. Sure, it means that Comic Sans will be used. A lot. But as Corey Holms points out, Comic Sans is proof the design works. The public understands that "type means more than words." And David Kadavy argues that just as interchangeable type led to a spread of literacy, Comic Sans, and the personal publishing it comes along with, should lead us toward a spread of design literacy.
Sure. Comic Sans is a bit ugly. But it's ugly in the same way that the first few chords of 'Smoke on the Water' are ugly, as played by almost every beginning guitarist, who picks up a guitar at almost every instrument store. Sure, it sounds annoying and a little bit fumbly, but it represents someone who is using tools to move toward mastery.
Adrian Frutiger said that type has the power to make the whole world of thought legible, simply by rearranging the same letters over and over again.
Well, Comic Sans, overused by the untrained majority may seem unsavory to some people, but as such, it most loudly represents something phenomenal.
Today it is possible for the whole world of thought to be made legible and be shared by the whole world.
And as always, thanks for watching.
Wow, bravo sir. Bravo.
@Zmyszan! Yes.

Comic Sans is like shorts. You can wear them anywhere you want except for a formal meeting. Then you need a suit or a dress etc. But that doesn't mean shorts are useless, ugly things.

I remembered. The school rules is in in comic sans.

It's one of the few easily legible fonts that I like to use! (Calibri, Arial and Times New Roman are fine for most things!) At one point when you said 'Comic sans' I almost misheard it as 'Common sense'!!
One of the complaints I have about everything since Window 98 is that I lost some of the fonts I liked to use!! (And all the unnecessary complications that have been added - or useful things that have been lost) Now I'm used to Windows 7, and hear it's soon to be discontinued/no longer updated. I do hope the Internet remains compatible with it for years to come. By the time my computer needs replacing I think Windows 10 and whatever follows it might have also become outdated.
There used to be a nice clear 'outline' font which was great on Paint when you want big letters for a sign where you can colour them in.
There were also fonts on Windows 98 with pictures on them which were lost when I put the document on Windows 7. The only way to get those little picture symbols back was to save them as picture files on the Windows 98 computer and transfer the picture files and add them back onto the document on Windows 7. Eventually I thought how tedious, I'll just pick new pictures or patterns instead!
Calibri & Arial fonts are ugly & overused, I don't get how they don't get worse treatment than Comic Sans (which is only hated for being a children's font) or the most hated font of all time Papyrus when they are just as bad.
I thought he was going to say"People disappoint comic sans."

Comic sans was my go-to in school, I just loved it. I would never use it for research papers or mid-terms though
When I was in kindergarten, the alphabet... the "Aa Bb Cc" thing on the wall above the chalk board was written in---you guessed it---Comic Sans.
Undertale did something unbelievable to me. It made me like Comic Sans now.

There is a boy at my school who wrote an entire book in comic sans about comic sans. He has tried to sell the book and people have actually bought it.

EnderGirl 2318 Where can I get it?
Hell I'll buy it.
EnderGirl 2318 i need to acquire this book

"There are no appropriate uses for Comic Sans"
Baldi's Basics: "Hold my ruler"
Sans : hold my ketchup
I personally dont see why comic sans is "ugly" i feel like its silly and weird to see irl, but digitally its quite nice.
Some say Michael was held at gunpoint behind the camera by Microsoft Bob himself.
Nowadays, Comic Sans befriends protagonist's mothers.

When I first learned about fonts I thought comic sans was the coolest font 😭
True story: I was Attempting my exam I noticed that the title of the Question paper was mathematics and it was written in Comic sans. I was laughing and everyone asked me why I was laughing but no one got it.
Imagine if, one day, for April fools UA-cam changed the font to comic sans

Hi
@@mubashiradinda1187 Vsauce; Michael here
i truly love that this is an assigned video for my college english class
I know I am late, but I wonder, if Vsauce can explain why people hate Comic Sans, could he explain the hatred the internet had for Stuart Little?
In 6th grade i wrote an entire essay in comic sans and it was truly a masterpiece
that's a beautiful story
I knew that something is wrong with this comment, I can't tells.
They tell me not to change my font in 7th grade, but its always comic sans.

Am I the only one who doesn't recognise fonts when seeing writing and can never tell comic sans apart from everything else?
The Live Laugh Love font has become the new Comic Sans, in 2023.
I didnt know comic sans was so hated
me neither
well, the designers put comic sans in my online game once... then I noticed it pretty quickly.
There are certain things wich are virtually unnoticeabe...
Until you finally notice them.
Dicks just blew this so-called issue out of proportion, as if there are rules as to how you should design font. Who cares?
Moke McHelloThere
The thing is, there are various fonts fonts for various ocassions. It takes minimal esthetic talent to discern wich font is aproppriate for birthday party and wich is better for metal concert poster. It is not the font itself, but the font being used profusely all over what is pissing people off.
