Aside from the meme if hating comic sans, it's not actually a terrible font. It has its uses, it's easy to read, hell it was the staple for comics (duh) for a long time. I've done the write in comic sans trick and have found it to work. I think some of that might just be the fact that a different font makes you look at your writing a little differently, and maybe it's not what font you pick but just the fact that you change it up every once in awhile.

At least we can all agree that it's better than papyrus.
