Is Arvore a cheese or a font? What about Balaton?
You can test your caseic and typographical knowledge with this “game!”:http://cheeseorfont.mogrify.org/ It’s an old (in web time, anyway) favorite and great for anyone bored at work, especially for those who work at type foundries and creameries.

If you want a laugh, read this short imagined “monologue”:http://www.mcsweeneys.net/links/monologues/15comicsans.html by designer and writer “Mike Lacher”:http://mikelacher.com/, which appears in _McSweeney’s_.
The imagined monologist? The font that everyone loves to hate, Comic Sans. This unloved font, deliciously defiant in Lacher’s monologue, lashes out angrily at all critics and comers.
See? Comic Sans is a fun font.
