You know it’s a bad day at the library when you have to call the police on an unsupervised, vandalistic ten-year-old...

This book is one chapter reading,

As I sat there looking at the computer screen, I become fully aware of the hours I had spent banging the key board in haste as the deadline for the final paper submission drew near. Finally, every word aligned just right, but there was something that needed to be changed still... the font.

Oh weary me, the time has come for the font to be changed for the paper to be complete. The font must reflect the mood of the paper. It is a serious paper, so I can’t deny the paper the most appropriate font. The severity of paper depends on it. At last, I would be but an ignorant writer if I used papyrus when speaking about Monstano’s allegiance to pesticides. I press the font categories and see Arial. No, that is not sitting quite right with me. When I speak of genetically modified corn, it should reflect the danger of modifying plants but the hope of changing the future through organic farms as well.

I click on Helvetica, and imagine the words flowing off the page in the specific font. Hmm. Shall I care to choose Helvetica or must I continue my search?

I scroll down through every font until I get to the end of the line. I run back in a fast pace to the safety of Helvetica. But oh Helvetica am I choosing you just for the sake of settling down or is this the truth my words will live by from here and forth. Ah, I scroll down and down again only to go back to Helvetica.
