Visual Comprehension Test Fail

OK faithful readers, here is a little quiz for you.

Can you tell the difference between the following fonts?

Scala sans regular:

Scala sans regular sample

and Scala sans LF regular?:

Scala sans LF regular sample

Oh, you can? What gave it away? The way the numbers are very very different? Was that your first clue?

Next quiz: can you tell the difference between Scala sans regular:

Scala sans regular sample

and Georgia ?:

Georgia sample

Wow, again? You guys are on fire. Now, it may be presumptuous of me, but I'm guessing that none of you are professional printers. Do you think that maybe typefaces would be something that a professional printer might have some degree of familiarity with - at least to the extent that they are able to see very obvious differences with, oh, I don't know, their naked human eye? (You know, like you did just now?)

Well then I know a professional printing office that gets a big giant F- on their report card for "Visual Comprehension". You guys, however, get an A+.

If you'd like to print some business cards for me, I have some business to throw your way.

Reasons why I should be allowed to commit murder

OK, really, this is only one reason:

  1. Women who piss all over the seat in public restrooms do not deserve to be alive.

That is all.

Important announcement

It's ES-PRES-SO. Not EX-PRES-SO. That's with an "S" not a fucking "X".

Thank you.

What to do when you're a moron

Dear Albert,

You should first learn how to use a computer. This will help you when your "screen goes black". It will also help you realize how to do things like monitor your credit card accounts online and also use Expedia's site correctly.

Then, after you're sure you can handle these tasks, you can try booking tickets again online. But if your "screen goes black" again, I would just recommend putting the computer in the garbage and driving to the airport and walking up to the counter to buy your tickets. This seems like the best solution for you.

Sincerely,
Jenn

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
