Oh No Helvetica

I watched the Documentary about helvetica. Thats why i'm typing this in helvetica. Helvetica is a type face that was created in Switzerland. At first everyone was excited about the newness and the cleanness of the font. It was most modern. But then, like everything new and exciting, it became over used. They people started to hate it and tried to go against it. And that was fun I guess.  Like the lady from Tyler School of Art said, "Helvetica is the reason for the Vietnam war," and I think i'm going to get that tattooed on my body somewhere...anyway the point of the documentary is that some people really...REALLY like type face.
