Bad CSS-Dad Jokes (III)

This will be the third installment of this series... more terrible CSS-Dad jokes. Don't say you weren't warned.

I threatened with more bad CSS-dad jokes, and I'm here to deliver... although some are more HTML-dad jokes this time. Still, I hope you enjoy them... even when they are terrible.


Why did the A11Y Coach not get the job?

They failed the background check.


What is a CSS Developer's favorite dessert?

Chocolate padding.


What does HTML wear at parties?

<address>


What is a web developer's least favorite car?

A bug.


How did the Web Developer become a bold shooter?

Practicing with a <B></B> Gun.


What developers are always throwing a line?

Tech <br>os.


Why did the repeating-conic-gradient leave college?

It already had 360 degrees.

What is CSS Developers' favorite clothes brand?

gap.


How do web developers eat for free at bars?

They set the tab-size to 0


Be kind to SVG files...

They have fillings too.


If CSS were a political party it would be the GOP.

It's the party of flow and order.


Did you know all CSS Developers are Democrats?

They think the left is 100% right.


I searched for the perfect grayish-purplish color.

It took a long time, but I found it in a #DECADE.


Why do <script> and <link> have trust issues?

Because the other HTML elements don't have integrity.


What is CSS' favorite rapper?

em-in-em

They are not all going to be winners. Other options:

  • Jay Z-index
  • 50%
  • Kendrick Lamargin
  • Mos <defs>
  • Cardi <B>
  • Chance the Wrapper
  • The :roots
  • Gucci <main>

...you get the idea.


Do you know CSS is into music?

It just likes to wrap.


How does CSS transform light into energy?

With font-synthesis.

Terrible. I know. You know what you signed up for, and still read up to here.


What is a Web Developer's favorite US state?

<main>

Also would accept Indiana (IN), Mississippi (MS), or West Virginia (WV)


And that's all folks! I may write more, but I don't know how long until I have another batch of 18.
