You have it somewhat incorrect. Using Comic Sans IS as bad a reading 50 Shades of Grey.

Of course You can use it for what You want but for things like contracts (I have seen it) ecc it is not the font I would use. And about eink readers: I couldn't read a book with that font but if somebody likes it why I should say: "it is wrong"? |

I can't imagine it as a body font except for a short note.

FYI: Sorkin Type Co released an update to Merriweather Sans, version 2.001. This one has a strange problem. Is definitely too bold (it is bolder than version 1.006 that I know to be the previous one). The light font is too light. How can I use FontForge to make a font lighter?
