Come on, the text is pretty easy on the eye, like a neat hand-print; also, this makes the text look less "formal" (indeed, I have noticed that the way I feel about a text sometimes depends on the style or format it is presented in).

I think it fits with his current phase of wanting to explore his human side.
I had no idea Comic Sans had ligatures (see the top of page 2 for the fi)
It isn't Comic Sans - the lower-case m is wrong. Comic Sans has a very jaunty and distinctive lower-case m.
I don't know what this actually is, perhaps some open-source stand-in. For some reason I haven't thoroughly researched replacements for Comic Sans.
Looks like the link has changed now anyway, so this is disappointingly moot.
Maybe it’s supposed to be ironic given the title.
... and before you downvote me, ask yourself.. "did I immediately think the same thing?"
