Ok, so I’m fairly picky about the facebook quizzes I take. Most are irritating and ridiculous. But a friend of mine, knowing how a have an affinity for fonts and the like, suggested I take the “What font are you?” quiz.
Let’s just say this experience could have gone better. I knew after my answer to the first question (the first question being: What would your co-workers say about you? and my response being: happy and bubbly… other options were quiet, headphones on, or organic fruit eater) that I was on the road to a mismatched font. I could have only, in my most terrible of nightmares, dreamt of what was to come.
I, Lexy Apostolou, am Comic Sans. There I said it. But I’m not proud of it. And I also don’t agree with it. AT ALL. Here’s the description:
Anyone who knows me would know I’m not at all what is described above (well, except for the fact that I do love a good company holiday party). Wouldn’t you, per chance, think of me this way instead?:
I’m going to go cry myself to sleep now. With my only consolation being that I haven’t used comic sans since I was in middle school fifteen years ago. Facebook can suck it. Oh, and the word “funky” can kiss my ass. Who’s happy and bubbly now, fools?

LOL... hey at least your logo hasn't been designed using comic sans which is the case with 30% small businesses here in Brisbane (who also sound like AAA1 Aardwark Plumbing).

I think Comic Sans is a great font to be. To me Comic Sans is exactly what was described minus the annoying part. What is wrong with being free-spirited and creative? Why would anyone want to be something such as Times New Roman? That sort of font is simple, plain, easy to read and completely lacking in personality.

However, maybe you are really Helvetica. The quiz result did say that you probably retook it after getting Comic Sans. I think this quiz may really have some deep insight into our souls. Who said Facebook quizzes were a complete waste of time? They seem to know more than most psychologists.
lolz..., then who want to be a italic or cursive fonts??....., then i think fb refer them as drunken person??....... ahaha..., i hope dis quiz is lill funny rite?.., anyhow i like to be a Arial
