This is guilt-trippingly sweet, there's a certain charm I get from this, kind of like that of tacky Christmas sweaters or unironically used comic sans :)

#12(edit: this assertion is incorrect, I skimmed the code too fast) I had no idea that you can draw on any element, not just canvas ones ... I thought there was a semantic meaning there ... apparently there isn't?

#13That is amazingly cool. Not sure what I'd ever use it for, but it's awesome nonetheless!

Looks like it's adding a canvas element to the divs and positioning it to line up.

Ah yes I missed the var canvas line and just presumed the code was getting a context on the selected div instead, a feature I didn't know was possible (it isn't).
The canvas declaration is staring right at me now that I review it again. That's life...

It can be use for form validation. If user doesn't enter an input, we can "wiggle" it for 2 seconds (together with a red error message). Recently I did just that :)

Aaaww, yeah. I like that idea a lot. I might just use that in a project I'm working on. Thanks for mentioning that!
