While trying to understand why Helvetica looks so shitty* on Windows at small sizes, I ran across this interesting article.

I can almost hear young designers now saying, “Helvetica? That’s that font that looks kinda like Arial, right?”

I’m no designer, but this sort of thing has happened in that youngsters of today may not understand that Greedo never fired.

* there is no other word that can quite describe how bad it looks!
