Good typography (ft. my cousin’s tattoo that I rly love)

Bad typography examples! The Comet and box of chocolates were found in my friend's house. There's no reason "with bleach cleanser" should be written in 3 different fonts, and also the alignment is off. I think the "happy Valentine's Day" is just really weird placement. Grille Billy's is a super gross restaurant in my hometown. I hate everything about that poster. All the text on the 4H club flier is centered and I don't think it should be. And finally, the logo at the top is supposed to say "OKBaby." I like the concept but I think the gradient and surplus of ladybugs makes it look cheap and tacky.
