20 More Bad CSS-Dad Jokes
New year, new collection of web development puns and short jokes! They are all equally terrible and funny (I wish... in reality they are more terrible than funny). I recently published an article with 100 Web Development Jokes (also available on Medium and DEV), and I’m continuing the "tradition."
I'll be publishing this post on Monday. But you get early access. This time I decided to make the collection in the round number of 20. It was weird that before they were 18... why? I don't even remember!
