...but Papyrus doesn't really work as a font for science, unless it's Egyptian archeology, maybe. Thanks to Jon for sending this in, I got a bit of a lol out of the shirt.
Must be a joke. xkcd sells "Science: It works, bitches" shirts based on this strip ( http://xkcd.com/54/ ), and also has this strip ( http://xkcd.com/590/ ) about Papyrus. It's an inside joke for hardcore xkcd fans, I think.
Yes -- what John said. The original is more like this: http://encefalus.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/science_it_works.png (I believe this one is official.)
Found this post while looking for the font of THAT image, because the Papyrus ones on Cafepress make my eyes bleed.
What? Papyrus. The font I once used on a 5th grade paper about Egypt is now everywhere. Papyrus is taking over logos and products, print media and even websites. Papyrus Watch sets out to document and expose the overuse of the Papyrus font. Send us your sightings!
Get in touch and let the judgment flow free. Send us your best Papyrus pictures and you may just get posted. Please send along your submissions to papyruswatcher@gmail.com. rad!
Definitely unacceptable, it's not even a science-y or tech-y looking font. :|

ReplyDeleteIt's a stolen shirt design and a poor interpretation.
