Quote from Leslie Knope

Leslie Knope: [aside to camera:] My first act as a city councilwoman? I've proposed a tax on all those giant sugary sodas so we can discourage people from drinking them. I believe, with my help, all local restaurants can get healthier. Paunch Burger, Big and Wide, The Fat Sack, Colonel Plump's Slop Trough, which was formerly Sue's Salads until we ran that out of town.

Ben: Times New Roman, across the board. No Geneva, no Garamond, definitely no Papyrus.
April: Papyrus? Are you kidding me? There's no place for that in a professional office setting.
Ben: Yes! Thank you, April.
