Wear Your Love/Hate of Comic Sans on Your Sleeve

We find Comic Sans terribly depressing, but is there change afoot in the status of this typographical albatross?

Created “to convey the mixed emotions Comic Sans evokes,” the shirt features a detailed drawing of the human heart—”ventricles, valves, and veins”—comprised of letters set in various sizes of Comic Sans on a “snug-fitting” American Apparel t-shirt.
