Found a funny bit of CSS today. I think my geekness is in full force today, because this had me rolling.
b {
font-weight : bold;
}
Then I came across this line of code:
Const int ONEPLUSTWO = 1+2
I can’t believe people actually do things like this.
If you like those, there is an entire site devoted to awful code. It’s named, appropriately enough, The Daily WTF:

Here’s the one from friday…see if you can guess what they are trying to do:
If (Mid(CStr(cppObject.GetValue()), 1, 1) = “-”) Then …
That’s too funny. I prefer this way:
if (value < MATT)
MessageBox(“This value is negative.”);
Ugh, I’ve done that CSS with the bold before. I can’t remember exactly why, but it seems like earlier versions of Netscape would actually NOT bold the B tag (or italicize the I tag) if there were already styles indicated for parent tags, like P. It was weird, and wouldn’t surprise me if some of the sites I manage still have those artifacts…
