Ah yes, the design environment for the web where all your users have new gaming PCs... (the i5 with a mid-class GPU below my desk can't display that page smoothly)

I smiled in irony as the "Design for Responsive" text scrolled by at 0.5 fps.

It is possible that you are "old" like me and thought that "responsive" meant "responds quickly to your input". These days "responsive" means that if you have a different size display than the person who designed the website, it isn't foobared. It is very difficult for me to repress snarky comments about the state of web design these days, but then I have to remember how ugly the web used to be in the good old days... Flashing red text on blue tiled backgrounds still haunt my dreams.
