Just a clue to the OP, probably best to keep this sort of thread out of 4m and...actually, not sure where this goes. Hopefully not Trou.

In other news, Dragon is broken and should be moved to the uber tire.
 
Are you serious Helvetica is hella ugly

lol, really

There's something to be said for how played out it is-- being a wildly successful typeface that has had a profound influence in graphic design for some 50ish years

to the point where it's completely overused, overdone, thoroughly explored, sure

but Helvetica Neue still rocks faces, dig those thin weights, just thin as rails, so baller

helvetica beats arial any day

right now I feel like brothers is my favorite type

Flying and Bug are alright too..

Whoops, I missed out a phrase. But in the middle there, after sad, rock also does good and then bad. With a rhyperior for bad and a carracosta or tirtouga for good. If I can find an image of them carrying someone about on their backs. I cant be bothered fixing this right now.

Thank you.

Well, Helvetica does look like complete trash when it's not properly kerned - especially at smaller sizes so I can see why people might dislike it at first glance.
