Wow, thanks for those links! No joke; the CSS on the better site is literally going to become my default CSS from now on.

It's a great example of how a little can do a lot. The balance between design & function can be at odds when the mission of the page is not clear. For consumption, these are awesome, your brain almost relaxes as it's easier than the usual onslaught.

  It's also a great example of how even such a little can go wrong. The CSS of the second website is wrong, as it uses 'color' without setting 'background-color'. Assuming anything about the default background color is not possible because it is user-configurable in most browsers. At least http://motherfuckingwebsite.com http://motherfuckingwebsite.com remains readable when you change your color settings (the second one is completely unreadable on my browser).

      It’s ok, but it’s already a bit too much. :)

    Good point. If the background color changes that often, I'm assuming there's probably a good test out there for that and more. The text was readable as designed on a white-background. CSS that considers accessibility or print friendly is always good to add.

        Yeah there's lots of a Javascript or css or html validators out there, and likely geared towards checking against a set of best practices. If it was a javascript that checked for the elements you want to ensure is there that would be neat too, I just wouldn't want it to be just me :)

If you want a bit more, but not the frameworks with thousands of unused classes, this might be helpful: https://www.cssbed.com/ https://www.cssbed.com/

<style type="text/css"> ? what are we dinosaurs? You might as well leave out the closing <p> tags if you are going to be like that. If the whole point of your website is to brag about code to accomplish reasonable formatting.... can we at least have code formatting? I think I have enough bandwidth to afford some line breaks. Client side GA????
