Yep, apparently the text in that block is raw text without HTML being sent from an old obselet CRM that only includes < br /> tags

You don't need to use !important if you target the element properly, even if it's raw text, it will still be in some kind of container.

ajmada2297yI read somewhere a guy had created the 'shame.scss' file to put all crap code he had to push before deadline. I think yours is a good candidate for this practice.

@pabmeister basically there's already shitty css coming from another place which has shitty selectors,
And this page is being dynamically created from a haml template which I had no access to.
so I had to use the !important,
Trust me I've tried... -
@dextel2 the $font-family is a SASS variable that references the font property value

bioDan61597yThe !important is annoying but i can let it pass as an ugly patch.
However, watching the useless double font-size with the "em" typo as "rem" made my eyes puke on my brains instantly.
