Scotland, firefox and javascript

-scotland the big elephant (or possibly ballista) in the room seems to be the countery is conflicted about england. I know this is mostly a techie related discutions I'm just wondering if anyone that lives in the areas has opinions and or observations about the situation.

In the opinion of people that are in the UK at the moment, what's the reel issue?

-FireFox with JavaScript:
On the pragmatic side: anyone getting pages that are so JavaScript heavy to cause FireFox to bomb? So far for me the most frequent culprits are the youtube type of pages, or ones with inline adds that refresh a bunch.

The two pages decided to clober each other leading to FireFox bombing.

If anyone else is running into this issue what all can be done about it?

On the speculative side of things: Is there not reely a better weby-web language? When I'm thinking better I'm thinking both for pre-droduction storyboarding a website as well as how whackable Gremlins are when they show up- or if
