My coworker said my CSS was 'too clever' and it stung at first
He told me I was writing stuff that looked impressive but would break for the next person touching the code, so now I just use simple class names and clear comments. Anyone else have to learn the hard way that readable code beats fancy code?

Yeah that was me too... I thought clever code made me look good until I had to fix it at 2am.

Learned that lesson the hard way too. Painful but necessary.
