Comic Sans is irony.

Post-irony would be Papyrus or maybe something iconic like Helvetica used in a context unfamiliar to the typeface.

Wouldn't post irony be Helvetica? It is a nice bearable font in comparison to CS, but it is used in excess as a counterfont to CS, in such manner that the excessive use becomes a joke and drops CS' meme status when CS was the actual meme because it is objectively a bad ugly font?

I saw it the same way.

Stupid, mindless, unfunny and pointless thread, by the way. Great job wasting your time.
