Once upon a time, I saw this tweet by filament group.
I decided to vent some of my frustrations, and sent them this email:
Dear Filament Group,
I CANT BELIEVE THIS SHIT. I TRIED TO MAKE A RESPONSIVE WEBSITE AND IT PUT ALL THESE GODDAMN @MEDIA NONSENSE ALL OVER MY STYLESHEET AND NOW MY STYLESHEETS ARE MESSY AS SHIT AND NOTHING EVEN WORKS RIGHT AND MY WHOLE PAGE IS FUCKED. SO THEN I FIXED IT UP EVENTUALLY AND I THOUGHT IT WAS GOOD WHEN I RESIZED CHROME ALL THE WAY DOWN ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT FUCKING CHROME ONLY GOES DOWN TO 400 PIXELS, NOT 320 LIKE AN IPHONE SO EVERYTHING WAS STILL FUCKED. THEN SOMEONE BUSTED OUT AN ANROID PHONE AND IT WAS EVEN MORE FUCKED. SO I FIXED IT FOR THE ANDROID PHONE AND THEN THERE WERE LIKE 400 MORE ANDROID PHONES ALL WITH DIFFERENT SCREEN SIZES AND OPERATING SYSTEMS SO I WAS LIKE FUCK IT, IM GOING TO ONLY USE SVGS. BUT THEN SOMEONE WAS LIKE HEY BITCH ALL THE IMAGES IN YOUR WEBSITE ARE BROKEN AND I WAS LIKE WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT I'VE GOT GODDAMN CRYSTAL CLEAR SVGS WITH GZIP ON THOSE FOOLS AND THEY RENDER SO FAST AND RETINA DISPLAYS AND ALL THAT SHIT, AND THEY WERE LIKE IM USING IE8. SO I WAS LIKE FUUUUUUUUU AND THEN I HAD TO WRITE A SHELL SCRIPT TO CONVERT ALL MY SVGS TO PNGS JUST FOR FUCKIN INTERNET EXPLORER, THEN I FOUND OUT THEY DIDNT EVEN EXPORT AT THE RIGHT SIZE. SO THEY HAD TO GO IN AND PARSE THE SIZE OUT OF THE FILES AND THEN SET THE SIZE AND EXPORT THEM. BUT THAT SCRIPT TOOK SO LONG AND THEN EVERY DEPLOY I PUT OUT WAS LIKE 5 MINUTES. SO I WAS LIKE FUCK INTERNET EXPLORER AND FUCK RWD, IM TAKING ALL THIS SHIT OUT OF MY FILEZ, SO I TOOK OUT ALL THE MEDIA QUERIES CUZ I WAS TIRED OF THAT SHIT, THEN I REALIZED I BUILT MY SITE MOBILE FIRST, SO NOW IT LOOKED ALL CRACKED OUT ON DESKTOP AND WAS LIKE SHIT SHIT GET ME TO THE GIT REFLOG I NEED TO GET ALL MY MEDIA QUERIES BACK, SO MIRACULOUSLY I GOT THEM ALL BUT THEN I WAS RIGHT BACK WHERE I STARTED, FUCKED. SO FINALLY I WAS LIKE FUCK ALL THIS SHIT AND STRAIGHT UP RAGEQUIT AND SPIKED MY LAPTOP RIGHT ON THE FLOOR AND IT BROKE INTO LIKE 99999 PIECES LIKE SOME GUY FROM DRAGON BALL Z HAD HADOUKENED THE SHIT OUT OF IT, AND THE NEXT DAY WHEN I WOKE UP AND REALIZED WHAT I HAD DONE I CALLED APPLE CARE AND THEY WERE LIKE YEA BRING THAT SHIT IN, SO I SWEEP IT UP AND BRING IN LITERALLY A BAG OF CHARCOAL WITH A COUPLE METAL SPLINTERS IN IT AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO REPLACE THAT, SO NOW IM OUT OF A JOB AND ALL I DO IS SIT AROUND ALL DAY TROLLING PEOPLE ON TWITTER.
Sincerely,
@jescalan
Then let them know. We'll see how this pans out.
