There's just something about fonts that are supposed to look hand-written but are too perfectly curved, every letter looking perfectly consistent, etc, that my brain rejects.

Like when you see CGI or computerised physics in a film that's 90% there, but there's something about it that you can't put your finger on that leaves a somewhat jarring "this isn't right! Something is wrong here!" in my primative monkey brain.

There is an interesting video made by a youtube channel called "Stuff Made Here" were he uses a robot hand and a program made to create fonts like they were hand written by humans and the results are impressive.
