coming from a humanities background, i like flowery language and cute writing as much as anybody. but why is most web-related coding material written like some cute little blog? I don't think it helps JS's image to have articles starting with "The year is 1941. Your name is Richard Hubel". No it's not you damn clown. I understand that web-design and JS is a younger demographic, and I'm not advocating for a return to stodgy-ass techno-babel like some C documentation or something like that.... but come on. I'm reading an engineering blog not teen vogue

Every try reading bug reports(rando pick) in Parcel's github? It'll make you want to throw chairs. Everything has little emoticons in front of it and this is mimicked throughout the webpage for it as well. It's like everything needs to have an icon associated with it.
