Why I Love The BBC


They have an article about the font Helvetica.
My favorite lines are in the comments:
"Helvetica and Verdana walk into a bar. The bartender says, 'Sorry, we don't serve your type here.'"
AND
"This discussion is almost as important as whether cucumber sandwiches should be cut on the diagonal or the square."

They have obituaries.
Even about things that don't need obituaries.

And yet they still give you important information!
As unbiased as the modern western world seems to be capable of...
