Microsoft are really really bad people (?)

In encountering U&lc magazine lately, I learned about Haas Unica being an attempted improved version of Helvetica.

As a display face for signs in airports, I don't think that it's possible to improve on Helvetica Medium - in that niche, it has achieved perfection. But, shown in a text setting, it seemed to me to be better than Helvetica, and just about as good as Univers - so apparently the "improvements" did improve something.

But I'm sure that the improvements were subtle.

Flip the bacon! Flip the bacon!

I sometimes don't understand the expressions used by native English speakers, so I Google them and I am also not dissapointed by the results i get: Bacon flip at Urban dictionary(it is offensive)
I know urban dictionary is not a credible source but it is funny

“Flip the bacon! Flip the bacon!” is not meant to refer to Microsoft in any way. It’s an obscure Fresh Prince of Bell-Air reference. I guess you had to be there.
