WHAT--Dirs

Why does the starting font have to be "Sans"? It's like using Comic Sans Font for a serious paper or for a funerary bulletin. Look at this font. It almost wants to trick your eyesight into believing that it is comic sans which doesn't look so terrible anymore. Ahhh, you know when an ugly person hangs around a better looking person that ugly duckling now looks a little better then expected. I think that is the phenomenom happeing here with the font. And why include fonts that are signs, symbols or just some dots thrown around? Who uses those fonts and wouldn't naturally first try the paint program out to accomplish those squggles?
