I’ll say it: Calibri is a horrible, remarkably ugly typeface.

To me it seems completely innocuous and unremarkable, which is its purpose.

It's entirely too full of itself. It might even be "embrace, extend, extinguish" as a typeface. Ruins

It just exists, its not pretty or ugly. And that was the appeal and point of it.

It really is. I don't know how they managed to create a font that is so unremarkable and remarkably ugly at the same time.

Callibri is a nice business font actually, slightly opinionated and definitely not good for everything. Like a Prius when it came out.
