AND I WAS RIGHT!

But that’s neither here nor there. What is here and there is that, in addition to being a movie about blue cat people having brain sex with every animal on their planet, the marketing for the movie featured one of those stock “artsy” typefaces that have been around forever: Papyrus. A typeface (created in 1982) which even it’s creator thinks is overused.

Well, that’s done. Hell, if we can abolish Comic Sans, we’ll be ahead of the game once this pandemic is done.
