Poll: The Commas on the forums look like Peroids

[White Lightning]

Surely I cannot be the only one who notices this? On other websites they don't look the same so I don't think it's just me. I mean, look at them! LOOK AT THEM! .,..,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,. When typing your post they look different but when it's posted they look alike.

Here, I will make a few sentences to prove my point. Usually in messages they look so much alike it seems, to me, that they are peroids. I personally find this infuriating. You could say it's a small problem, but is it? I don't think so. Other punctuation is fine; commas and peroids however are not fine. I mean if I look REALLY hard they look different, but it still bugs me.

Am I crazy or does someone else agree?

 

[Marter]

I have quite literally never had this thought cross my mind.

Sorry, but I can't agree with you. They look fine to me.

 

[Rose and Thorn]

My commas look fine to me, good sir.

Perhapes you should make your font larger?

 

[geK0]

I was going to call you crazy. but I need to go save my drowning bacon from that whirlpool,

Maybe you should visit an optometrist. you might have poor vision,

 

[TehCookie]

Pst commas have the little dangly tail, periods are just a dot.

Bro, you crazy. But that's ok, we don't judge.

 

[King of Asgaard]

Ummm, nope.
It's all fine to me.
You may need to have your eyes checked, pal.

 

[MeChaNiZ3D]

Commas and periods are inherently alike. It is in noticing the small tail that the difference lies. I would suggest searching in the lower half of the character, with a magnifying glass if necessary.

(I cannot imagine why anyone would pick whirlpools over bacon, and furthermore, how ruining the bacon with water is in any way better than bacon by itself.)

 

[an annoyed writer]

Bacon drowning in whirlpools is my answer. Why? Because it makes as much sense as your assertion.

Ba-dum-tish.

Okay I'll go now.

If your bacon and a stranger were drowning in a whirlpool, which one would... NO, we're past this, we've moved on!

 

[Reginald]

You probably just need to get your bacon checked.

Well you may need glasses friend.

Either that or better monitor or screen resolution,

Are there, perchance, any specifics about customizations on OS or program level? Some things tend to look downright funky on, say, Windows, Linux and/or OSX, especially when users customize, say, font selection or font preference for web content in their browser of choice.

I find the current font to be quite low stress and high performance, and the only thing I tweaked was to add a darker/black border (complete with Yatzee's gremlins) back in, so as not to waste energy and eyesight on useless blinding white. Oh, and I switched the background colour to that slightly blue-tinged white, which allows me to spot annoying images better, due to their usually white background.

So, no, as long as I don't feel an urge to use add-ons to customize websites to full usability and cut down on the all-white iCraze that's currently going on, I am a truly happy camper.

What's with the captcha? They look like watercolour expressionism with a pinch of Pollock and a dash of LSD today?

 

[Woodsey]

Your girlfriend must have some funny looking periods.

 

[eternal-chaplain]

I don't think I have ever come across a poll with more silly answer choices than legitimate ones...

 

[Loop Stricken]

They look absolutely fine to me.

Mm, delicious baconpools...

 

[geK0]

You probably just need to get your bacon checked.

Of course I would save the bacon, why would you even ask such a question?
