April Fool’s Day is one of those Love It/Hate It kind of things. When it’s done cleverly, it can be a lot of fun. When it isn’t… Well, it isn’t.
But over on the Calligraphy subreddit (which went full Comic Sans for April 1st, a jarring change), we have a wonderful tradition of exploring around Reddit, finding entertaining comments, and prettying them up in calligraphy. Mind you, many of them won’t make sense without context, but that’s probably even better. So here’s this year’s batch – enjoy!
(Note – there may be some NSFW text in here. Scratch that. There will be.)
I honestly enjoy seeing those, and it makes me want to really get into Calligraphy too. Great quotes – and amusing ones especially – are something you can get me with every time.
I’d just hope you’d tell me which inks are used. This seems a bit like torture. 🙂
For example… which ink was used for the “Autism Spectre” at the very top? I can’t quite put it, but I really like it.
Thanks for sharing, very beautiful calligraphy there.
I think “Autism Spectre” was written with De Atramentis Pigeon Blue. I *think* – I have to get better at keeping records of what inks I use. That’ll go into my ever-evolving self=improvement plan.

Thank you 🙂 Do that, for us ink addicts that’d be dangerously helpful 😉
