Serious sans typeface

A “revamp” of the old Microsoft Comic Sans font. Now we just need some sort of browser add-on that can convert websites using Comic Sans to Serious Sans. :)

Serious Sans sees Microsoft’s silly, inescapable font called to heel and given a shampoo and style. The designers even made a spoof crest in which the Microsoft dog gets replaced by a “serious fox.” One small step for ethics, perhaps, but a giant leap for aesthetics.
