At one point, jQuery was so overrated that when I searched Google for JavaScript alert syntax, it came up with a similar StackOverflow question, where the top answer used jQuery to call it.
There were other responses to the StackOverflow question, which managed to call an alert with just the single method call, but the top answer loaded in the entire jQuery library, to place a single native call.
