Almost everybody uses Arial, Papyrus, and Comic Sans. Or those with, perhaps, proper education (self or not) use Helvetica. But Helvetica is already very ubiquitous, which, when added to its neutrality, makes it really boring at times. Meta is a refreshing typeface to see, especially is shops, menus, and brochures (among others) and I smile when I see it used properly. It's like ogling women, really.
