Does He Look Like a Bitch?

March 12, 2007 by Amy

When I worked at my college magazine, I was utterly obsessed with fonts. Serif fonts, sans serif fonts, ransom note fonts, handwriting fonts. I knew everything we had in our arsenal and could tell you what font was best for which article. We layout folk would admire each other’s work, nodding when a good choice was made, “Oh, yes. That’s a good font. Nice, nice.” in this dreamy tone of voice. I was partial to serif fonts back then — your Garamonds, Book Antiquas, Georgias. I tended to slip in some Copperplate from time to time. Now, I find that I’m more drawn to sans serifs like Century Gothic, Eurostile, Skia.

However, I will always, always abhor Courier. Aside from scripts, there is no need for one to use Courier. And while my knowledge of the latest fonts is a bit lacking, I will always be a font geek at heart. Which is why this piece of animation made me ridiculously giddy:

Brilliant.

PopGurls for Thought

The Big Love Scene at the Bar. Rod tells Kevin that he can empathize with what Kevin fells for Abbey: “You want something so bad it hurts. I just admire your passion, Kev.” Rod then pulls out a cassette tape and pushes it in front of Kevin. “You inspired me to write this. And, uh, I figured if you could put yourself on the line to find that girl, I could do the same.” The song “Falling” swells in the background. Rod touches Kevin on the shoulder and leaves, while Kevin looks lingeringly after him. U.S.: Yeah, okay. It’s all pretty much just text, there. Melynee, Amy
