Hey hey hey HEY. That's not fair to us. Random Linux nerds who were bullied. BULLIED, I say. When we coded our personal sites on Netscape on Linux (which was painful enough when Netscape 4 had a hazy understanding of CSS1/2 already) and the site had some random glitches on IE from time when we couldn't ensure IE compatibility. This "IE6" shit needs to stay buried, OK? This is "history that must never repeat" shit, OK? OK. Good. BONUS JOKE: There was a whole range of jokes dedicated to what happens when you shoot yourself on foot with your favourite programming language. My favourite was this: "You shoot yourself in the foot with JavaScript. If using Netscape, your arm falls off. If using MSIE, your head explodes." permalink fedilink source parent load more comments (-1 replies)
