    Funny ... but nonetheless utterly pointless.

    Actually, it's incredibly stupid.

    I honestly have no idea why people still use tables.

    You know people who kind of shy away from technology because they're too "old fashioned"? It's like that, except incredibly hypocritical. They'd rather use less efficient, outdated technology just because it's old hat to them.
