Happy Birthday Helvetica!

So March 9th was my fathers birthday and March 20th is my brothers birthday, so I was searching the web recently looking for gifts for them on a website called Etsy. It is extremely addicting so I HIGHLY suggest it. That's besides the point though, I was searching "men's gifts" and this nifty guy shows up.


When we say Helvetica is everywhere were serious, it is everywhere. Ties that say helvetica, if that doesn't screen type freak I don't know what does. Obviously being on the internet all the time some people will learn to almost deflect the fact that there is so much going on. Then there are people like us who notice the little things like spacing between letters and lines and words. Some may say we are crazy but I think it's just anal! Nothing wrong with having some people in the world who need some sort of order in their lives and would like to share it so the rest of our word can see the order too.

Just incase you were wondering I never bought the Helvetica ties for my dad nor my brother, I don't think they would appreciate me expressing such an order on their birthday!
