Times Newer Roman is a new font to make academic papers appear longer.
Times Newer Roman is designed to add length to any academic paper that has page requirements and also requires the use of Times New Roman.
[...] This means that a paper of given word count will have more length when rendered in Times Newer Roman instead of the old Times New Roman—hopefully without being noticeable to whoever's job it is to grade the paper.
Bigger and therefore better academic papers help advance the state of the art.

Jesus Christ, all we had were fucking Cliff Notes. And there was only 1 version for any given book so if you used them the teachers knew. None of this pay someone to plagiarize someone else's work for me or adjusting fonts. Hell, we had to carve our papers in stone in cuneiform!!! And that was only after the Sumerians came around. For the unwashed who demand "Citation", well here you go: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuneiform [wikipedia.org]
Jeesh, kids these days have it so hard. Who do I pay to get me through school so I can become a barista and spend my life under insufferable student loan debt!
It's ok, I'll die soon : )

Recently on Hacker News was an article about whether millennials can learn mainframes. One poster suggests that they will want job security. Just wait until millennials start having kids.
I bit my tongue, but wanted to say: "you think millennials will have kids?"
The lower I set my standards the more accomplishments I have.
