Because of Windows 7, the exam board lets us conduct essays in calibri now whereas before the only standardised font recognised was Times New Roman. It actually causes slight contention between people when we see each others essays.

I have a sort of overhanging reputation amongst some of my friends as being old school, not old school like the 60s, but old school like the 1660s, using TNR provides only more ammunition for them to strengthen this reputation. xD

One that you can read and fits with the overall design of what you're using it in. That's why I never use Brush Script at least, nobody can read it easily.
You're half right. A good font fits with your design. Its legibility, however, only matters if your design needs a legible font.

The other half of what makes a good font is its flexibility. How comprehensive is its glyph set, how large is its family, how well is it spaced, how does it combine with other fonts?

Most of the crap on sites like dafont lacks that second bit.

When coding, I like to use the font Terminal, set the background color to black, then set the foreground color to white.

On a Dutch forum I go to we have a yearly Comic Sans day. The entire site is displayed in Comic Sans and some headers have the colorful MS word rainbow thingy as if it were some horrid presentation. It's really quite funny.

That is an abomination.
