I surrender!  Yesterday I wrote, “Does anyone even use Courier anymore, or is it hanging out with other forgotten fonts, drinking and talking about the good old days?”

Judging from your responses, I greatly underestimated the Courier love.  It sounds like a good number of people and places still use it.  Please consider me properly font-shamed.

Papa Smurf had magic. I have no idea how that will play out against Wolverine or Prime.

Also, the new movies show Prime as having orange-hot swords that pop out of his wrists, and the very first animated episode back in the 80s showed him being able to retract his fist and extend an orange energy axe.

Yes, I am that much of a geek :-)

Papa Smurf definitely!

Small is mighty.

Think piranha, think ticks, think VIRUSES! MUAHAHAHAHAA!

Well, I have always had a fondness for little blue heroes :-)

"To celebrate, I’m tempted to write an alt-universe story where Snow and Talia get married, share a passionate smooch, and then join Smudge the gay fire-spider in kicking Fred Phelps in the nuts."

I would pay to read that:) what a way to celebrate!

Hm ... you know, I do have an anthology deadline waiting for me after I finish up Snow Queen. Phelps-kicking wouldn't really fit the theme, but maybe I can stretch things a little ;-)

This.

I never said it was *just* on my nose :-) My left arm has a decent rash going too. Doesn't seem to be getting worse at this point, but not really getting better yet, either.

[jimhines]

Youch. That sounds like it would be bad enough to warrant a trip to the doctor for the good meds. Glad you're starting to heal up, at least.

Papa Smurf would win, because the other two would be begging for mercy after hearing Papa speak and sing.

[jimhines]

He'll smurf the smurf out of 'em!
