Font Overload...

I used a font called Zapfino for a recent project. The project was about 6 weeks long, so I got pretty attached to this particular font and got to know its quirks fairly well.
Recently I've seen this font in several other place, in a way I feel like I've been robbed of this font that I've grown to enjoy so much. But in another way it seems like everyone has suddenly started using it, and I don't think there is really a reason why.

I really want some of these; clearly I'm just a big kid, but they would be so much fun to play with!

Being rather a fan of bottled water makes it a bit weird for me to appreciate this poster so much. But i really like the layout, and use of personification

Really useful website to do with type and fonts
