URL turds are the annoying hash (#) marks that get left on the end of a URL when a front-end developer didn’t do their job by suppressing the default event on JavaScript clicks. When you are tempted to use <a href="#" …>, don’t. Add a click handler to an element that’s not a link—you’re not linking to anything! URL turds are a pox upon humanity and must not be tolerated.
