[From http://www2.sjsu.edu/depts/english/2003.htm - John Dotson's
runner-up in the Bulwer-Lytton contest for 2003:]

The flock of geese flew overhead in a "V" formation -- not in an
old-fashioned-looking Times New Roman kind of a "V", branched out
slightly at the two opposite arms at the top of the "V", nor in a more
modern-looking, straight and crisp, linear Arial sort of "V" (although
since they were flying, Arial might have been appropriate), but in a
slightly asymmetric, tilting off-to-one-side sort of italicized Courier
New-like "V" -- and LaFonte knew that he was just the type of man to
know the difference.
