Font Crimes
1. Using fonts together that are too alike. It's not bad
to use more than one font together. Just make sure they're different.
2. Using Comic Sans. It's just wrong. Don't do it.
3. Liberal use of display fonts. Use them only in the right
situations. And don't use contrasting ones together (i.e., fancy
script font with silly font). And never use them for a large body
of text, unless you intend to annoy your reader (or unless it's
a "mild" decorative font).
