Hitler isn't the only one that has the hate on for this font. There's a group online that is dedicated to hating this font. We've seen this Hitler movie clip with several different subtitles, all of them, amusing, but this one cracks me up too.
Hitler freaks out over Comic Sans MS.

Dear Tristan - 3 Years, 10 Months
Dear Tristan,
Driving home from the beach I had a great idea for this month's Dear Tristan. It was such a great idea, I thought I should write it down. But then I thought to myself that it was such a great idea that I wouldn't forget it. I remember having this entire dialog in my head. But I've forgotten the idea. It was about something that you do. Something that was so distinct that I could write an entire entry on it. Something about you that I didn't want to forget. It pisses me off that I can't remember what it was.
I thought at first maybe it was your eating habits, but that wasn't it. Maybe it was the way that you are starting to sing to yourself while you are completing tasks, shaking your hips and humming along. Could have been how when we were at the beach you spent the entire time paddling around on your kickboard chatting with any kids or adults that would respond to your conversation. You are definitely a people person. Charm is going to be one of your superpowers. If I can't push you on the swing at the park because I'm helping your brother with something, or talking to another parent, you'll just find a parent that is already pushing a child, take the swing next to them and ask if they will push you too. Usually they do. I mean, they are already standing there right?
When we were at the beach you made friends with a 70 year old artist and a 20-something year old soon to be bride. And when I say made friends with, I mean you talked to them for at least 20 minutes while you kicked around in the water. They were both women but you aren't afraid to go up to the Dad type on the beach and ask if he'll pull you around on the kickboard with his children. I know I should chide you for asking random people for things that you want and I do, but I'm glad you've figured out something after three years of life that a lot of people never get. You would be surprised to find what you can get, by just asking nicely for it. This is something that I learned in my 20's and it's served me well. Just don't forget to smile when you ask.
I love you,
Ahma
