    I don't see why people get all up in arms when I mention TNR or even dare use it on paper, it's just a font!

    I have no problem with the font itself; I’m just allergic to serifs.

    TNR is good for essays and usually i'm too lazy to change fonts if i'm writing something. OTHERWISE I like papyrus.

    Either of these work. I prefer Verdana for larger texts and Tahoma at size 8.

    THIS & PAPYRUS

    I see that on small businesses sometimes and it makes me want to weep Those poor businesses will fail forever.

    I don't especially like Times New Roman, I prefer cleaner fonts.

    I must admit I always liked to try and use different fonts. Thankfully most of my teachers weren't sticklers for TNR. As long as it was readable and didn't use significantly more space than TNR you were alright(no cheating page length by using a super size 12 font ).

    A favorite of mine to use online is Palatino Linotype or any font similar to it. Or at least it seems to have codes for it on several of the forums I visit(stupid forums that limit font choices, it isn't like reading Palatino will kill ya!... then again it does keep someone from posting in Comic Sans).

    Calibri is also nice, though truthfully I didn't recall seeing it much before. Must have overlooked it in my massive font list.

    STILL Updating the anime list. . . I didn't think I was that much of an anime freak! I don't even want to consider updating the manga list!

    I like it, if only for the nostalgia of sitting in front of a computer in secondary school typing away at stupid essays and stories and messing about on the internet.

    good times.

    I'm a fan of sans-serifs myself. Arial has always had a place in my heart. Calibri is really nice, too.
