internet explorer Memes

Ah, the browser engine family portrait! Two fierce, intimidating dragons (Chromium and Gecko) looking ready to burn your CPU to ashes, and then there's Apple's WebKit... the derpy cousin with its tongue hanging out who still can't figure out how to implement basic web standards from 2015. Frontend developers have nightmares about Safari the same way they used to about IE. "But it works in EVERY browser!" *tests in Safari* "...except that one." Nothing says "I hate web developers" quite like forcing your proprietary browser engine on the entire iOS ecosystem while it struggles with features Chrome and Firefox implemented during the Obama administration. The circle of life: Internet Explorer dies, Safari steps up to become the new browser that makes developers question their career choices.

Frontend developers looking at CSS like it's some mystical treasure that will solve all their layout problems. Then they actually try to center a div vertically and suddenly that treasure turns into a cursed object. The face of regret in the third panel is the universal expression of someone who just realized they need to support Internet Explorer.

Internet Explorer just delivered the most savage comeback in browser history. Sure, it might take IE five minutes to load a single webpage, but at least it responds faster than that person who left you on read three weeks ago. The emotional damage is so severe our poor developer can't even sleep at night. Nothing hurts more than when the slowest browser in existence points out you're getting ghosted harder than a deprecated API. Brutal efficiency where it counts!
