The Situation Grows More Dire…

…type-wise. Yes, I went out on Sunday afternoon for a few short hours and was relentlessly harrassed by Comic Sans yet again. Here for your mortification are three more sightings:

Example 3: Double Offender

As you can see by my amazing 3-second notations, this vehicle not only features Comic Sans, but Hobo as well. And the Hobo is flying through space or something. Amazing…

Example 4: Awning

Even small villages are not immune. This quaint little town across the lake a bit seemed to think that Comic Sans is more charming that hand-painted signage. Alas, this is not the case. (Wouldn’t you rather see the awning painted like the stuff on the window?).

Example 5: Restaurant

In this case we have the side of a building facing a parking lot advertising the restaurant’s fish selection. I can’t believe sign printers even accept art like this.
