Stop Making Text Inputs Look Like Something Else challenge for telecommunications companies, start: now! #FuckSake #CSS
Screen grab from a form. What looks like a heading that says SIM number, with an underline, is actually a text input. Below is an instruction: SIM number is a 13-digit number located on the back of the SIM card.

Underneath that is a plain box with the words Activate SIM. It's a button. You can't click on it until you've typed the SIM number into the text input that doesn't look like a text input.

@mpesce reminds me of this classic demotivational poster for Meetings. despair.com/products/meetings
A motivational poster format with an image above a heading in large all-capitals text, followed by an aphorism in small caps.

Image: hands overlaying one another in a wheel, from people apparently in business attire.

Heading: Meetings

Aphorism: None of us is as dumb as all of us.
