People often ask me what the point of life is. And this is what I say: the point of life is to get from A - B as quickly as possible. In this, the alphabet is possibly the greatest form of transportation invented by man. But remember: the joy should always be in arriving, never in travelling - anxiety is your friend, your only real friend. Throughout your life, you may encounter people who will tell you that you will never amount to anything. This is not true. The fact of the matter is that you will never amount to much - that is a very big difference.
Throughout history, man has fought man, brother has struck brother, bear has baited bear. Religions have come and gone. Yet one argument lingers like an unwanted houseguest...bold or italics?... bold or italics? I like to keep out of these matters and am reluctant to be drawn on issues of font, but something must be said. These things are never clear cut, but for my mind, it is always better to favour italics.

And you were doing so well, sounding so informed, so thoughtful ... but at the end you picked ITALICS !!!! Italics - always zipping along, never looking where they're going, here one minute, gone the next. How could you be so shallow? Sturdy, reliable bold - fearlessly, proudly taking a stand - no dithering, no bending - saying it loud and saying it proud! Puleeeeze reconsider.

Bold is the anti-matter in a sea of clutter. Italics is nothing more than purgatory for a useless word.

Bold works better for email.
I reserve italics for poetry.

Bold is demanding and aggressive, a lover that takes you by force
Italics ask and invite, they a lover that seduces
