I got something similar in a requirement specification once:

"Resolution supported: Max" "OS support: The latest one"

🤦🏼

"OS support: The latest one” is not that bad of an requirement...

If they complain like "why doesn't this work on Windows Vista, on IE8" - you can just point to the specs and say you only support the latest OS.

So basically you only support the latest Nightly Build of Ubuntu, since that's the current latest OS

I literally got the description "make it look cool" in my current project.

We all know the context and can roughly guess what it means, but still...

make it look cool

Got it. Animated background, GIFs, HTML 4.01 frames, marquee, privacy-friendly ads which are just GIFs linking to other websites. Did I go too far with the last one?

That sounds fucking awesome.

I used to have one like that, only with more tables (using the default border, of course).

It what's later became known a "programmer design".
