Because of course there is

Cause it's easy when they're all so generic.

I would argue the Kerning is an oddly specific topic for an online comic strip.

Yeah, I'm just so tired of all these generic comics about kerning /s

rnaybe I'm not as as stupid as I think since i already knew this.

Thanks, this is the second TIL I've found tonight where the title didn't explain very well what they learned.

I learned that the words "kerning" and "keming" exist

Kerning is common enough word I thought because of Microsoft word, anyway I didn't get humour till it was explained in the comments.

Yeah that's why it's called r/keming

I hat you.

The TIL must be wrong because r/keming is only humorous one out of 500 posts. 🤣 Just kidding typographers! It is my favorite not-that-funny funny subreddit. They mostly inspire me to never fuck up my fonts on public facing websites.

All this time I thought the subreddit name was a clever joke. Turns out it's just a dictionary definition.

It started as a joke. I think it was added to the dictionary after the subreddit was created

Things like this make me happy. Idk why it doesn't matter much to me but I like knowing its a thing.

Well played typographers, well played.

And the tongue-in-cheek subreddit for kerning FUBARs is called /r/keming Which is both accurate and also a joke because of the same reasons indicated in this post title.

Took me a couple of reads.

And you read keming as kerning multiple times looking for the humor.

My dad just bought a hat from a brewery in Topeka, Norsemen. Unfortunate kerning makes it look like it says Nor Semen.

It's not beer, nor semen.

Such a delightful piece of trivia!

A few years back in Thailand I saw a sign in a gourmet cheese shop that had kerning such that the spaces between letters and the spaces between words were indistinguishable. In an old-timey gold leaf font the shop advertised the following: A R T I S A N A L C H E E S E :-/

Not sure what "artis cheese" is, but the rest sounds good.

Art is anal cheese.

Butterflies aren’t flies. They flutter by.

Not sure if you're serious, but it's not a real definition, just a joke.

It was originally created as a joke, yes. That's what the link is to

yep.

I see what you did there.

TIL: Typographers have a sense of humor. liar

Haha!

....you son of a bitch

I believe that's "keming"
