       | That was one of my favorite SNL episodes. Really interesting to
       | learn about how much work was behind this. It really showed in
       | the final product.

       | impression, it could very well be Owen Wilson doing Ed Norton.

           | When you use fixed font sizes like that browsers can't resize
           | them based on the screen size/viewport. 12px fonts are
           | _really_ small and hard to read on high resolution screens.

             | That's false, px refers to CSS pixel, which is not tied to
             | physical screen pixels.

           | height.

       | SNL must be like bad quality candy that is so part and parcel of
       | one's childhood that one can never quite outgrow it or fail to
       | not cherish it, despite now knowing that nearly candy from any
       | other part of the world has superior, wholesome and more
       | nourishing ingredients than the HFCS-sweetened, off-tasting,
       | peanut-packed kind - the only kind - you've known growing up.
       | 
       | For the most part - and with the exception of unintended humor
       | owing to the broadcasted-live nature of the show - I've never
       | really found SNL to be very funny or talented or thought-
       | provoking. I never quite got what the fuss was all about.
