Papyrus and Comic Sans are so overused it's not even funny.

So basically the "I don't like it because it's popular, look at how hip I am" approach. Wonderful.

Nothing wrong with it being popular, just that it's overused.

I just think Comic Sans is ugly.
Not much more I can add to it.

I used to see it everywhere in primary school and kindergarten, I eventually just got sick of it. Verdana or Calibri is really my font of choice now.

This one is pretty annoying.

...I'm pretty sure it's arial?

Anyway, the default font (as in the forums, most websites, what you type into the google search bar, etc) is the master race. Simple, organized, easy to read.

And it's the most compatible with bold, italic, and underline.

But when you scrunch them together it's loving horrendous

YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND CAPITALIZED VIVALDI VERY WELL, CAN YOU? <-- Translation: You can't understand capitalized Vivaldi very well, can you?
But um, typing "IT" into Vivaldi makes a fancy symbol that looks like some attempt at a cursive pi symbol. - IT

I think people are looking for the word 'overly-misused' rather than 'overused'.

Just because someone says they don't like something because it is overused doesn't mean they don't like it because it is popular.  Think about the last time you heard an overused joke.  Just because it is used a lot that doesn't make it "cool".
