Annoying websites that shrink their text

That "ikeahacker" page is fun, but very annoying. I have pretty good eyesight and I like to get lots of information on a screen, so I can spend more time reading and less time scrolling (it's the break in eye scanning that annoys me, not the clicking per se). So, I have my text size on my browser set fairly small. This is usually OK, except when people insist on using font size of -2 or -4 or -6. The big trouble with this is that this isn't a relative reduction, ut an absolute reduction in point size. So, for people who have their font set to, say, 18 point as standard, a -6 size is still 12 point, although if you have 18 point as your standard this may well be too small for yuo, but at least it's only 2/3 size. On my machine, it goes from 12 point to 6 point, a reduction in half, and even with my eyesight, 12 point is too small.


Grr.
