unfunny comics and indian princesses

got a great email from Bill who writes:

OK, so I happened upon your blog by what wonderful chance I can't even recall, but have been really enjoying reading your archive.

Ahh, yes... A FireFox history search indicates it was after reading http://www.xkcd.com/590/ that I Googled "Papyrus Font" and the rest (of the hours I am being paid to "work" at the office) is history.

Anyway, I love your links to things like the Gallon of Milk on Amazon, and I was doing another random search and came across this little gem:

Someone, apparently, stole their kerning. I am guessing that they didn't *pay* someone for that header graphic. It is like a color and font "cage match" where everyone lost.

Bill from HB

Thanks so much Bill!

To me, XKCD is maybe the most unfunny, poorly drawn, suckfests on the web but that guy there is certainly topical if nothing else. The indian princesses page is awesome in its use of papyrus with maybe one of the worst logos ever shat.

Thanks again for the kind words and sending this along.

flickr mail? really?

I wouldn't have thought to check but I am glad I did. Mike sent a link (via flickr mail) to this comic.



Thanks Mike!
