The title makes no sense.

[–]EVILEMU 25 points26 points ago

ya... what is there to unsee o.O

[–]ZiggyZombie 1 point2 points ago

I can't unsee!!... uh The.. uh.. fact Ariel is a font?

[–]nettles121 175 points176 points ago

why is the black one also fat?

[–]thats_not_gravy 115 points116 points ago

Black is heavier than bold in typography. However, since Ariel Italic only references the Italian stereotype rather than the shape of the letter form itself, it would be more appropriate for Ariel Black to be the normal size.

So, whoever created this is either doesn't understand how visual puns work, or is a racist asshole.

black mermaids can swim?

[–]TheyCallMeNaterTater 2 points3 points ago

They could've at lead skewed the italic image a little. You know, for consistency.

[–]ImposterProfessorOak 1 point2 points ago

or just copied the threads from yesterday

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, I'd have just made her lean more to the right. That is what Italics does.

[–]dhockey63 -3 points-2 points ago

racist asshole? Or statistically accurate? Lets turn evvvvvvverryyyyything into a race issue huh buddy?

[–]thats_not_gravy 2 points3 points ago

Buddy?!? why i gotta be a buddy? you just ASSUME that i'm a guy? you sexist pig!

[–]jeremyfrankly 4 points5 points ago

That may be how the font is

[–]lngjohnslvr 1 point2 points ago

Because italic print should be read with a French accent?

[–]koyo4 2 points3 points ago

How many times is this repost going to be a repost of a repost?

[–]DerpyWhale 2 points3 points ago

I just followed this really weird circle and ended up back here. I feel like this was a conspiracy...

[–]spensur 7 points8 points ago

Does it bother anyone else that the top two are written in Impact?

[–]HilariousB 1 point2 points ago

Yes

[–]bonzi_wells 6 points7 points ago

Yet another despicable example of stereotypefacing.

[–]MadCervantes 2 points3 points ago

Actually the term "stereotype" does come from typefacing. A stereotype was a phrase that was used so often that they made a plate of it to speed up the printing process.

[–]TheyCallMeNaterTater 1 point2 points ago

That's interesting, actually, if it's true.

[–]TheyCallMeNaterTater 0 points1 point ago

See I don't understand why you got downvoted for providing legitimate information.

[–]Isthian 19 points20 points ago

Maybe not but you can stop reposting this crap.

[–]demonicsoap 2 points3 points ago

I saw this on FB before I saw it here.... Dear lord... What have we become...

[–]Good_day_to_you_SIR_ 0 points1 point ago

It just so happens to be summer.

[–]codecx81 2 points3 points ago

Anyone else kinda wanna see the entire movie re-done with the Ariel Bold version?

Even if someone made a trailer, I figure I'd laugh quite well at it.

[–]Bacontron 4 points5 points ago

This was only funny the first time, and you're just reposting images from the comments

[–]SakeBomberman 7 points8 points ago

Thats racism bro, I love to make the racism

[–]NO_LIMIT_CRACKA -4 points-3 points ago

toughen up, sally

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

What kind of ...I don't even...

[–]DerpZombie[!] 1 point2 points ago

I lolled at italic.

[–]roseismyhomie 1 point2 points ago

isn't it spelled arial?

[–]AliasUndercover 1 point2 points ago

I hate whoever did this...

[–]emohipster 1 point2 points ago

The fact that the first two captions aren't Arial, but Impact, really grinds my gears.

[–]fenrisulvur 1 point2 points ago

I like how the black woman is just assumed to be fat straight off the bat

[–]Littleair4 2 points3 points ago

I shit you not! I have a girl named Ariel Black in my school. Spelled the exact same way. (And yes, she is also black)

[–]SourCreamWater 3 points4 points ago

Well...to be fair, the font is spelled with an A instead of an E. So...yeah.

[–]mattc286 1 point2 points ago

Well?? Don't leave us hanging! Is she fat??

[–]Littleair4 2 points3 points ago

No... But really ugly.

[–]emohipster 1 point2 points ago

So is Arial, so it checks out.

[–]unheimlich 0 points1 point ago

Holy goddamn shit. That is fucking amazing.

[–]Kavyle 0 points1 point ago

I like how the backgrounds spread out with the fat Ariels.

[–]spacechaser 0 points1 point ago

Good job making another one.

[–]tankfox 0 points1 point ago

My boner ignited at all four, then died when I remembered that mermaids don't have vaginas.

It's actually more like silver, if you ask me. (Considering every time it's been reposted, of course.)
