>tfw a website uses Arial as its font

It's especially stupid when they use Arial, Helvetica in that order.
If you have to use those fucking print fonts on a display oriented medium, at least put Helvetica (Neue) first so we get it instead of its retarded clone on Systems that have it. Windows has Aliased "Helvetica" to Arial anyway.
