Except... I don't buy it. Not entirely.

The common reasoning is that Microsoft ripped off Helvetica by producing a sub-standard version of it with Arial, but pretty much every part of that argument is patently false. It takes minimal research to learn Arial was a product of Monotype, not Microsoft. And to say it's a rip-off of Helvetica, well, Helvetica is a rip-off of Akzidenz-Grotesk (and earlier fonts) should we follow that logic, but I don't see too many people raise that argument. (Watch Helvetica for more on the font's history, it's streaming on Netflix.)

The differences between the two fonts can be hard to spot, even if you work regularly with them. The capital "G" and "R" are the giveaways, and "Q", "r",  and "a" are helpful too. General differences in stroke cuts and glyphs can be spotted if you look closely.

But for the most part? We're talking more similarities than differences.

I do think Helvetica in and of itself is a nicer looking font, but am starting to tire of all the typography-snobs being so down on Arial. They're nearly identical. They're both inspired by older typefaces. It's not the end of the world should a website out there dare to use Arial.

That's his "Divine". I dare you not to hum along to it.

Yet the simplicity of the current Apple Remote Control is pretty awesome and you don't even have to look at it to use it. The directional and "Play/Pause" buttons curve out, the "OK" and "Menu" buttons in. 

The feel in the hand is sturdy, too.

Really, sometimes it's the little things, and the Apple Remote is awesome in all its simplicity.

The actual show, meanwhile, is promising, particularly with its obvious homage to Fulci's 1981 classic, The House by the Cemetery.

Good acting, great filming, a couple of scares, and a decent amount of surrealism which I hope they won't try to over-explain in future episodes... Yes, definitely a promising show.

(Still curious why Ryan Murphy casts so many actors with Down Syndrome in his shows.)
