The italic font style is a powerful tool in the arsenal of any self-respecting villain.

Used correctly, it can add a touch of sophistication and menace to even the most straightforward of evil schemes.

But beware, for the italic can also be a double-edged sword.

For in the wrong hands, it can be a crutch for the weak-minded, a cop-out for the lazy, and a laughingstock for the inept.

So use it wisely, dear reader.

Or not.

Your choice.

But be warned: the italic is always watching.

And it will judge you.

Hard.
