New Re: hard-to-read fonts
We went to a minor-league baseball game this week. One of the teams' name and the numbers on the jersies were in a "fun" font. I couldn't read the name at all, and some of the numbers were ambiguous.

Stupid, stupid branding.

And there are businesses that do the same. When you're driving by and have a second to read it, you can't.

"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."

-- Isaac Asimov

If you can't read the advertisement, what is the point? First impression is "cute, but stupid". Not a real selling point as far as I can see.
