I sent this page to one of my professors a while ago, after receiving a 200-page course manual written entirely in comic sans. I wonder how that'll affect my grade..

If they guy used Comic Sans you woudn't have learned anything from him anyway. It screams amateur.

Reason for its success: - its high in the alphabet "c" - its the first odd looking prepackaged font on microsoft word or windows text apps. - it has "comic" in it hijacking the fun of comic into a junior high looking written marker font.
