I grow weary of this thread. Save us @Zarkopafilis!

Can’t win, can we? I suggest we just go with Comic Sans.

The color #1700b3 is chosen from the color palette suggested by Scott above. For future reference, the other colors from that palette are: #0003ee, #00dac6, #007e87, and #b00036. If we are unhappy with the choice of color, we can still change that.
