This Font Must Be Joking!


A loosely drawn style carried through to the vectorised final product.
Laughing Matters is a light-hearted font based on hand-drawn letters with a look that fits somewhere between breakfast cereal boxes, Saturday morning cartoons, and the illustrated gig posters of the 1990s.
When used in its loose and bouncy lowercase format, it suits projects with a comedic theme leaning into nostalgia, while its uppercase or all-caps variant can feel more modern and punk. It remains legible at large and small display sizes, making it particularly versatile on titles, posters, and packaging designs.
The Laughing Matters font includes a regular version with uppercase and
lowercase characters, numerals, and multilingual support, plus stylistic alternatives and OpenType ligatures. It also features an all-caps variant with unique upper and lowercase characters, plus italic versions of each. It’s also been carefully designed to be lightweight for web users, whilst retaining high visual impact and customisability. When you need to play the joker, this is a great typographic tool to hide up your sleeve. Enjoy!
