Shout out to all the font enthusiasts, it's time to celebrate Comic Sans Day on July 5! Created in 1994 by Vincent Connare, Comic Sans was initially meant for a comic book speech bubble in a Microsoft software, and oh boy, has it come a long way since! Often dubbed as the most polarizing font in existence, you either love it or you hate it, but there’s no denying that its wonky, irregular shapes bring a touch of fun to even the most formal documents. So let's have a whole day to honour this font that keeps the design world on its toes! Twist up your emails, lighten up your documentation, and unleash your playful side on this day of typographic liberation. Be ready to break the rules, tap into your inner child and remember, only on Comic Sans Day is it okay to forget about Times New Roman!
On this day, make all your outgoing emails a little more playful by changing the default font to Comic Sans. It may not be the most professional, but it will surely put a smile on your face and maybe the recipients' faces as well!
Put Comic Sans to its original purpose and design your own comic for the day. Who knows, you might even discover a hidden talent for storytelling and illustration!

Invite your friends over for a Comic Sans Day party. Everyone should come dressed as their favourite comic character and, of course, all the invitations and decorations should be in Comic Sans font!
Comic Sans Day provides a welcome break from the seriousness and formalness of everyday life. We're all too used to seeing 'professional' fonts in work emails, official documents, and academic texts, so using Comic Sans for the day brings a sense of playfulness and light-heartedness that can often be much needed!
Comic Sans Day also offers the opportunity to appreciate the design of the font itself. Despite its criticism, one cannot ignore the creativity and originality involved in its design. Created for conversational use in a comic book speech bubble, the font signifies innovation and outside-the-box thinking, something we could all benefit more from recognizing and celebrating.
Comic Sans is often considered a rule breaker in the world of typography. Celebrating Comic Sans Day is our way of appreciating this uniqueness and rebellion. Whether you love or hate Comic Sans, you can't deny that the font encourages people to embrace individuality and not always adhere to established norms!
