Almost every city has a font that gets (over)used -- in Vancouver, you see infinite multitudinous flavours of Dax.

Here in Calgary, they really overuse Benguiat and Optima. The former shows up in everything from exceptionally bad gyro shops to the bizarre version used by the support staff workers from the local public school board.

The latter belongs to the oh, aren't we just so terribly serious and important? brigade -- The City of Calgary (see the upper left corner) and The University of Calgary (upper right corner).

Feh to all of them!
