    • LEGO Dingbats Font

    But this minifig-based dingbats font is hilarious. Our younger readers may want to avoid looking at X.

      I think telling them to avoid looking at X probably ensures that they will… :)

      Yes sex is bad, however the prisoner that is about to Kill the cop in K is perfectly fine. :-p

      ^to be fair, the cop did just arrest the dude in J. The cop clearly didn’t practice much officer safety here- he should have been more aware of his surroundings. Too bad for him the handcuff pieces are a fairly new item…

      Lego geometry makes it difficult to accurately show a minifig giving another minifig the Heimlich maneuver. But I’m almost positive that’s what is going on in X. You perverts.

      teikjoon> Probably. But they were warned so it’s not my fault.

      Me neither, I like the idea of a lego alphabet, but this is just a bit odd for me.

      This is not an alphabet, these are dingbats.

      “A dingbat is an ornament, character or spacer used in typesetting, sometimes more formally known as a “printer’s ornament” or “printer’s character”. The term supposedly originated as onomatopoeia in old style metal-type print shops, where extra space around text or illustrations would be filled by dinging an ornament into the space then bating tight to be ready for inking.” -Wikipedia

      They would be great for spicing up your next essay at school.
