Here at Muse HQ, we're kicking off the new year by focusing on things that are just plain fun. You'll read a fascinating article about how games make us happy (yay, Tetris!). We've compiled a madcap list of games and game-related phrases from around the world (anyone up for elastikspring?). We're also exploring the history of the world's funnest and most annoying font, the infamous Comic Sans--and we're talking a little bit about carrots. Who doesn't like carrots?

This month's Muserology is about astronomy and something even more delicious than carrots, if you can believe it: CAKE. What's the most fun you've ever had? Tell us about it here, and you might get published in Muse, which is the funnest thing ever. 

In the MUSEum, you'll find this month's Plastic with a Purpose contest winners. Ready to compete? Create your very own font to enter our new contest: What's Your Type?
