jQuery

if ($("#img").attr("src") == null) {

$("#img").attr("src", $("#img").attr("src"));

}

This stinks of jQuery. jQuery is an abomination. I've lost track of the number of times I've heard "I can reduce your n lines of javascript into q lines of jQuery" from someone who doesn't understand that jQuery involves pulling in about 2 hexatrillion 'lines' of javascript.

It makes me sad.

Now, get orf my lawn
