Quick Definition of “Kerning”

Far be it from me to even know how to adjust for kerning, I only learned about kerning in recent years. I do understand, though, how one who specializes in typesetting or design of any sort, might go a little crazy when they see bad examples of kerning. We’ve all actually seen it before, just perhaps didn’t know what to call it. (If you don’t wanna click the link, kerning is about proper spacing between letters based on the letters themselves, not just ‘tracking’, which puts the same amount of space between the letters regardless of what they are.)

So, to those people who care about kerning, I must warn you, you are about to wince.

Liver Pool?

This bar used to be…. Billy B’s? Something like that. We’ve never gone in, preferring Creekside (in the same strip mall area).  Whatever ambiance they’re going for, I’m sure not getting “Ye Olde England” from this one…. instead, a rather scary visual of a swimming pool filled with slippery dark-red organs.

    that’s funny no matter who you are. I would read it as a “pool of potential liver transplant recipients”

    That’s hilarious! I’ve had the exact same thought as I’ve driven by there. My hubby and I call it the organ bar…

    Did you see in yesterday’s paper that this place was shut down due to numerous violations including but not limited to “roaches in the holster of the soda gun at the bar, and roach activity in multiple areas.” Ewww! Kerning is the least of their problems.
