Copperplate Gothic Bold

This is the Last Straw…Or Is It?

This is the last straw, or is it? Look at this wondrous and beautiful design for the folks at the Guinness book of world records for the most straws someone attempted at shoving into their mouth. We love the title it screams “the author deemed this piece of writing and ad copy worthwhile, it will better your life after reading.” I’m surprised it isn’t about the record for the most used and admired font in the world, but that’s another story.

While this young adventurous man reminds me of myself in my youth, he will stop at nothing for greatness. Enduring great physical pain and being laughed at by his peers for having the largest mouth outside of a bass fishing tournament, who’s laughing now? Well, probably his friends…at him…because he can’t laugh because of all the plastic in his mouth.

So keep doing what you are doing young man, use the power of Copperplate Gothic Bold to guide you and let all your dreams come true. Because one day, someone is going to say they’ve had the last straw, but they won’t, you will.
