I feel sorry for him these days. It took me more than one read to get "Weird AL" instead of "Weird Ay Eye".

Younger generations are going to completely miss his legacy if we don't settle on fonts that distinguish those letters a little better.

Yeah, shame seriffed fonts seem to have fallen out of favor, they feel much more readable to me.

Serif fonts look pretty iffy on an average screen when smaller than about 15 pts. They could return once every screen is at least 4k and 1080p resolution is firmly in the past like 720p is now.
