The favourite fonts thread got me wondering - which typefaces make your heart sink whenever you come across them, either through their widespread misuse, or just because they're plain ugly?
I'm taking Comic Sans as a given.
Since it shipped with Windows 7 I've seen Bleeding Cowboy turn up in many places beyond its acceptable use advertising the Wednesday night mechanical bull contest at a theme bar too. Even better when the poster was designed in Word & the tops of the letterforms are clipped....
So what are your typographical pet hates?
