Remember that time in a car full of people when you were in charge of finding a good radio station?

Remember that time in a car full of people when you were in charge of finding a good radio station? After scanning past annoying commercials and static, you landed on that cheesy song from your prom. Internally, you wanted to listen to it, but at the same time, you felt somewhat ashamed; you didn’t want your friends’ to know that you were actually excited about the idea of?7? minutes of Meatloaf. So, after suppressing a squeal of joy and hesitating briefly, you continued on to the next station.

These guilty pleasures happen with fonts too. You know the type: fonts that are gimmicky, awkward, dated, clich?, or just plain bad… but you love them anyway.
