Not sure it’s Britney.
Comic Sans has no ambition; is chosen despite itself; is hyper-ordinary.
It’s the supermarket’s-own-brand ramen noodles of typefaces.

Same as every crack addict on a come down, surely?
I'm not sure if Britney Spears had pushy parents, but I think that's the analogy with Comic Sans. Abusively pushy and demeaning, trying to criticise when the flaws are those of the beholder and bestowing outrageous praise for imaginary achievements.
I'm glad to hear solid defence of Comic Sans here because whatever it is, it's sui generis, unto itself true. Which I think is the most attractive character trait at the same time as provoking extreme reactions of self projection in observers.
If you have a product that doesn’t target designers or the like, does it really matter?
