Seriously, though, Comic Sans was originally designed to be legible at the smallest possible font size, and the lack of hard lines makes it easier to read!

My original intention was to come here and proclaim that you're a heretic. Having looked at it for a moment, I think that you're onto something here...

same here... just right now downloading the font, thinking if I don't at least give it a try, I'll forever wonder what it'd be like...

The difference is that Comic Mono is monospaced, which gets rid of Comic Sans's horrible kerning.
