Stack Overflow is riddled with questions from people asking how to do incredibly basic things "in jQuery."


I think this one is satire, but you never know ;) http://i.imgur.com/Q3mkcnl.gif


Werry_Togan is an excellent username haha. There's a lot of subtlety to this.

I especially like the creativity in the "related questions".


"How can I use JavaScript to parse some HTML using regex?"

Priceless.


There's one that says "Where are my legs?" Took me a second to get but I think it's a reference to head and body in HTML.


That is definitely satire.


My highest rated answer on Stack overflow, by an enormous margin, is a simple jquery question (How to get the value of a textarea).


Is the answer "you don't need jQuery for this"? :)
