As a teacher I have been told to use comic sans in all my lessons, for pupils with language based learning difficulties it is the easiest to read (especially on a blue background).
I would not use it for anything else but we should all be nicer about a font that can actually improve someones learning.

Was it is, or is it was?

[...] Meanwhile, at a small office in Canada, our submitter says one of the company’s directors has a similar habit of sending out a pedantic “just FYI”-type memo to the entire staff each time she has run-in with another co-worker. (And yes, our submitter says, they’re always in Comic Sans.) [...]

no apostrophes and symbols? Methinks the idiot they hired to write their customer management database (JS, perhaps) is not too good at sanitizing user input before feeding it to the database.
