Flex Box

I absolutely love flex box, and being a chrome user the support is great right now. Though, I find it so disappointing when testing across browser. Chrome - perfect, Opera - perfect, IE - perfect(w/modernizr), Firefox - big friggin' disappointment.

Admittedly firefox nightly beta's handle flex box like a champ, but that is like 2 releases away.

Anyone have any suggestion on keeping things DRY and not having to hack my code to pieces to deal with current firefox inability to completely support flex box?

(currently I build mostly using RoR, customized Bootstrap, Normalize, and Modernizr)

I would recommend you not use flexbox yet as it's currently like building on shifting sand.
