Why does everyone hate comic sans?

Answer 1

This is actually a common misconception. I would be very surprised if anyone actually hated the comic sans font. In reality, it is just not used very often as it is harder to read than a basic font and has no evident artistic value. This would mean that one is very unlikely to put it on his or her term paper, manuscript, resume, etc. Comic sans has it's place; it is just hard to find that place.
