I found this example of Papyrus on my doorstep last night.

No! Not more Papyrus! A. and I always bitch about the new resurgence of Papyrus. It's the new Comic Sans.

There's a restaurant that opened here with an AWFUL Papyrus sign, I promise to take a picture of it for you sometime.

HA! that's hilarious. I think we once had two shows in the same year that used that font in the title card (not my call). Seriously, that shit is everywhere. Just like that fake typewriter font.

Anyone got any GOOD font ideas? I could really use them.

I'll admit, though, that this is not a particularly egregious use of Papyrus. The stuff that really bothers me are logos, and, yes, restaurant or storefront signs! We should all start a collection! Maybe a flickr pool?

but, yeah, Jorge, I don't know about suggestions. I mean, as far as storefronts go, I'm a big proponent of hand-made, or new design text, unless the font used is meant to be very basic (helvetica).
