  1. I smell an April Fool’s joke. Nonetheless, the fact that you were able to change all the type on the site suggests you maintain your stylesheets well. Painless to change back on April 2!

  7. Worst April Fool’s I’ve seen so far on the web. I have you on RSS and Twitter, but this is plain stupid.

  15. I was thinking in my head “Really, Comic Sans??! Has Jacob finally derailed? I thought Comic Sans was forbidden in the design community?!” LOL good thing I read the other comments! You got me 😀

  16. I think this is a great April Fool’s joke! The key to a good April Fool’s joke is plausibility. For the most part, I think we know Jacob would never do something like this…but you never know…

    I’m going to go switch my website to Marker Felt now. Thank God for CSS!

  24. I’m going to be honest, I was fooled… for a second. Until I read the comments. Nicely played
    P.S. It’s still March 31 where I’m at.

    ~Happy April Fools

  30. It’s not April Fool’s day in California just yet, but I was surprised. At least it wasn’t papyrus.

  34. Love your site, love your work. As for the font choice…it will have to grow on me. Keep thinking creatively and keep leading the field. I think you are one of the most talented designers out there right now.

  37. lol. I don’t think i’ve ever seen a site all in comic sans before.. good thing this is only a temporary joke.. I hope! 🙂

  39. I wonder tomorrow the RSS subscribers turned to zero, 0. Lol!

    Have a wonderful 1st April! 🙂 Why don’t you change to something like Joker font or etc. Or, symbols. That’s even hilarious.

  41. As I was reading this post in my head I was thinking of a way yo kindly say “Comic Sans sucks.” Haha. As I began to read comments I realized it is indeed April 1st on your side of the world. The joke is definitely on me! Nice one Jacob 🙂

  42. OMG… I was thinking, comic sans is one of the most condemned fonts for designers, and this site use it!?!? until I found out it’s April 1st today.

    well Happy April Fool 😀

  46. Thanks for not leaving the site comic sans! I was super worried for a minute… Especially because yesterday was not April fools in the US, today is, so I didnt get the joke at first!

  48. It’s now the 16th! – I’m sorry I missed this one. I’d love to see a snapshot of the whole site in it’s full glory of Comic Sans!!

  49. I know, I missed it also, I’d love to see it, come one, give us a link to where we can view it 🙂

    Personally I think that Papyrus would have been more …. ahem…. ‘striking’ 😉

  50. More people need to read this and understand this aspect of the story. I cant believe you’re not more popular.
