Do you ride a horse to get to work, too?
You’re an asshole. If I could downvote your post, I would.

JavaScript and CSS can add a lot of bloat, unnecessary load times, and add massive security vulnerabilities. Sometimes you just want information, you know, without waiting forever and getting hacked.

I have decent bandwidth and I still find myself turning it off a lot.
