Today, CERN is holding a public event to present their findings about the Hadron Collider to the public. They are streaming the event live and after someone pointed it out in my Twitter stream, I had to check it out. Apparently, the most ground breaking scientific findings of the past century, are best communicated in Comic Sans font.

You know, from now on, if anyone makes fun of your unironic use of this font, just point them to this screen capture. If bad ass physicists consider Comic Sans worthy of use, then it should be enough for an office party invitation. That, or the scientists at Cern are hipsters in disguise toying with us.


For the past decade and a half I have been making all my content available for free (and never behind a paywall) as an ongoing practice of ephemeral publishing. This site is no exception. If you wish to help offset my labor costs, you can donate on Paypal or you can subscribe to Patreon where I will not be putting my posts behind a lock but you'd be helping me continue making this work available for everyone. Thank you.  Follow me on Twitter for new post updates.
