I Effing Hate Checkboxes and Radio Buttons

My rant for the day:
I effing hate checkboxes and radio buttons in HTML and XHTML. I mean, who the heck thought of making the label a separate thing and not to the right of it as a feature of the INPUT tag? Every time I try to draw a label next to it, the checkbox or radio button goes up or down or the label goes on a new line. It's freaking stupid. And then there's the cross browser CSS issue where I have to move one of those items up or down a couple pixels with relative positioning in order to make it line up consistently with the characters in the label on all browsers.
