Not so much the font, but the things behind it:
The tweeness of where it usually appears, smug church newsletters in the home counties that speak of tartan-clad terriers, doilies on mantlepieces under porceline figures; presentations from managers devoid of talent for their positions, yet ever exhorting the underlings to work harder, but it's ok 'cos I'm a bit wacky, me; spam emails from Chinese pharmaceutical companies that don't really exist.
It's become the choice of typeface for the hateful lot of them.
