I don't have a favorite because it's all terrible. I guess Sass somehow makes it less so, so I vote for that.

this would be funny to have at my desk as a front end web developer, it expresses frustration with CSS in a humorous manner imo

i use tables all the time and if you have a problem with that you can go figure out another way to vertically center an element of unknown height

welp, ie6 can't render anything properly. we may as well just pack it up and continue doing things the old way

this won't work. idk what common use case it fails for but i don't need to say why for the same reason i don't need to say why a particular perpetual motion machine won't work

if it's all you want on the page it'll work

if you want to vertically center in an arbitrary parent element it would be different

i guess if you really like tables yo ucan

code:

#parent-container {
 display: table;
}

#centered-container {
 display: table-cell;
 vertical-align: middle;
}
