I don't normally feel strongly one way or the other about stuff but this really rips my knitting! Note: Credit to the creators for making something and puting it out there but man, that name :(

Haha, not trolling.

I tend not to use libraries for JS, preferring to write actual vanilla JavaScript, hence the reason the name rubs me up the wrong way :)
