I know how to post to Usenet using a fancy font because I am an arsehole.

Of course it doesn't. The choice of font is up to the news reader
program. There is nothing in the NNTP specification that provides
a capability for a poster to associate a particular font with all
or part of any individual post.
 
Some NNTP readers have chosen (poorly) to support the Multipurpose
Internet Mail Extensions (note the key word 'Mail') in NNTP articles,
but that's neither standard nor portable.

But with some trickery you can do almost anything.!!
 
I didn't see the original post but it looks like he/she might be on my
killer-switch!!

Do that trickery using https://groups.google.com/ like fir, (who brought
it up) requested. All other clients, servers and services are close, but
no cigar. ;)

I tried above but perhaps we can't make google web client to add that <PRE Style='Font-Family: OCR A, monospace !important;'> at start of post but it does render it fine.
