This issue relates to how draw context is handled in browsers when opacity is applied. Due to this the element is drawn as if it had z-index even when it is set to 0 and this also effects the pseudo element that has a negative z-index (so it shouldn’t appear when the parent element’s z-index is 0).

Long story short: give `z-index: 1;` to `div#show` and problem fixed.

Also: [had a bit of fun with this](http://codepen.io/Merri/pen/fLnmw). I used a different method to create the triangle (border-width).
