1. You don’t understand who thought this irony was OK.

2. You do not believe in good vs. evil, only Helvetica vs. Papyrus.

3. And Helvetica is basically your version of fast food…

4. You’ve bought a product purely because the packaging was so beautifully designed.

5. Lorem Ipsum.

6. Yes, it does matter whether the color of the ocean in your latest Instagram is “dark teal” or “duck egg”.

7. You wonder why “CMYK” isn’t one of the 5 love languages.

8. Your biggest life question is how to create a logo that is modern, classic, simple, and complex all at the same time, while STILL being able to satisfy the client.

9. A work week is no less than 100 hours.

11. Your nightmares are subtitled with Apple Chancery.
