Roger: Courier. Hmm, that doesn't feel right. Helvetica. No, too plain. Times Roman, eek, way too formal.
Jason: What's the problem?
Roger: I want to use a font that fits my writing style.
Computer: If I may offer a suggestion.
@marvee, that’s the point. The “e” in “suggestion” is also backwards. The computer is suggesting that the sloppy kid font is most appropriate for Roger’s writing style.

At first I suspected Comic Sans but that’s a Microsoft creation. Roger’s using an iFruit although Jason might have found some fonts on the internet.

I think it’s a backwards ‘e’ vs. a ‘g’.

Backwards e doesn’t make any more sense than misspelling. It’s like children’s writing.

The Azerbaijan alphabet uses a backwards e to simulate sound somewhat like halfway between an ’e" as in egg and “a” as in apple.
