Idle question of the day: who is the original nitwit that thought uppercase I (i) and lowercase l (L) should be the same symbol?

@shuttersparks Excellent question! That guy really deserves to be tarred & feathered!😂😂😂😂😂👍👍👍

@ArenaCops Exactly. My question wasn't entirely idle. I might go and disrespect their grave if I knew who it was. ;-)

@shuttersparks 😂😂😂 Don't forget to wash hands after disrespecting though!

It’s not one person.

It’s a coordinated global conspiracy by a group that goes by the name #SansSerif. Pretty hard to find the precise locus

⬆️ @ArenaCops @shuttersparks

Additionally, I’d go with crippling sanctions. That’ll teach them, if Phil’s disrespecting the grave of the founder doesn’t

@rameshgupta @shuttersparks I can't help it, sounds somewhat French to me - maybe they dilettantishly guillotined the Serifs, out of suspicion they were hostile foreign Sheriffs.

⬆️ @ArenaCops @shuttersparks

Yeah, always decapitate first, ask questions later.

#Robespierre, who advocated the mobilization of a sans-culotte (such close resemblance to sans-serif) army, was executed without trial.

@rameshgupta @shuttersparks It appears Serifs have also been taken out without due process. Shocking!

⬆️ @ArenaCops @dogzilla @shuttersparks

Pure gold, the last few posts have been!

#Trump == Comic Sans has committed the heinous act of serificide, and that shall not go unpunished.

I live in Illinois and the mere thought of this barbaric injustice makes me Ill. Every serif makes a difference and deserves a chance

@rameshgupta @dogzilla @shuttersparks We should hold a referendum on the introduction of a congressional Medal of Serifdom. In memoriam of its bravery on the front of fonts! 😎

>> We should hold a referendum on the introduction of a congressional Medal of #Serifdom.

I agree.

Every #serif will be free, from the sliver to the wee

"Trump says Biden was 'locked and loaded' to 'take me out' in Mar-a-Lago search"

Hey, what about the time #ComicSans was #lockedAndLoaded to take out the #serifs from all our fonts?

@rameshgupta @dogzilla @shuttersparks Yesterday the orange presidential office trojan was heard singing off-key "I shot the Serif".

Now half the world is having a meltdown.
It's outrageous!
