I prefer Times New Roman.

But that's just me.

I know perfectly well how to change fonts. I just like Times New Roman.

Heeey.
It's a lot better than Calibri and their associated fonts, which is the default for Word. You've to type in Times New Roman :I

Pretty much the same thing for all I care.

Ironically, DreamWorks movies are currently distributed by Disney, but under their Touchstone label. But that only started more recently, so not when that cartoon was originally released.

Ironically, DreamWorks movies are actually distributed by Disney, but under their Touchstone label, which they originally created so they could release stuff that they didn't want the Disney name associated with, usually movies for older teens and adults that have sexual references.

Palatino Linotype is my favourite font face. Probably because it's the one I've learned to read best due to its ubiquity in books in my country. The serifs feel natural and not intrusive. The SMF version leaves it somewhat small by default, but nothing a single size tag can't fix.

In Canada, we have Future Shop. Which is kind of exactly like a Canadian BestBuy. We also have BestBuys up here, often they're right next to each other and directly competing for buisness as they stock most of the same stuff.
Future Shop is owned and operated by Best Buy...

To be fair, the principal only uses Comic Sans on the papers directly related to the stuff he teaches, not on official announcements or letters.
My favorite font is Helvetica. I'm just used to it.

Either it used to be TNR, or it's different in the Philippines version, because I remember it always being TNR by default.

The facilities guy here at work types up his emails in Outlook with his font set to Comic Sans. I've never used Outlook (developers use Linux, so I've never had to touch it aside from setting up redirect rules to my work Gmail account), so I don't know if it's set as his default font or if he chooses to do so each time.

My dad has Comic Sans as his default font on his phone. My respect for him took a massive drop when I found out.

I know that older versions used TNR, but I have the 2013 version, and it defaults to Calibri.

Meanwhile, there was a power outage at school today. It was like the end of the world in the classroom. Everyone stopped listening to the teacher, people brought out flashlights, stupid stuff like that. Lasted at least an hour. The flashlights weren't even necessary. The windows were letting in more than enough light.

I also remembered a few stupid things. Like on Remembrance Day, where some group of girls in the cafeteria were completely oblivious to the moment of silence at noon, and just would not shut up and were telling other people off for standing. Or overhearing a conversation where a girl said that she was certain that she would not get pregnant because she's already been pregnant so many times that she built an immunity to it, like a virus.

I hate Comic Sans with all my heart.

It's my school's preferred font, unfortunately.

You know how I joked about how you're working with future politicians during that powerpoint thing? The one where you weren't allowed to use pictures or "blunder"?

It would appear that your school is the main source of Senators.

Well, Canadian Senators are appointed by the Prime Minister, and don't really do anything but nod at bills and collect significant paychecks for not actually showing up... So ya, sounds about right.
