    I'll just be quietly sitting over here hoping that if Kel is in the mood for a couple of breezy videos, that means "My Favorite Fonts Pt. 3" might drop sometime. It can be a 30 minute unedited shot of you browsing fonts and talking to yourself, I'd take it. Those first two font-flicks were so relaxingly fascinating.

The moment a teacher told me this seemingly obvious statement, my art school experience changed drastically
