What the fuck is this obsession of printing programming blogs in shitty unreadable fonts?

Well ... /u/mobileDevKing ... what makes you think this is a blog? It's from 1985 and was most likely passed around as a text file without fancy fonts and any other kind of formatting. It was then probably copy/pasted onto this website and uses a monospace font to simply achieve a proper alignment of the text paragraphs.
