I actually kinda like Dipshit Condensed. They put a lot of effort into that slab serif typeface. And it is a typeface since unlike the others it’s obviously copied from print.

That’s good.
In college I worked on a project with architects who brought their concept drawings to a big meeting with the central playground labeled: pubic play area. I still get a giggle out of that. This one’s even better. If pubic’s off limits, what are we working with here?
