Well the images vary between every page. The CSS can be cached from previous
pages on the wiki, where all the images might be new because they're only on a
single page, so this could be the first time those images are seen. Since this
page was loaded after a hit to [[special:random]]. Its quite probable that this
is the first time that page was viewed.

yep. So perhaps the css just did not get loaded(?).

Other weird things, is that the the wmf button at the bottom of the page did
not appear to be in the browser cache (no if-modified-since header so not in
browser cache. no pragma:no cache header so request wasn't from a hard refresh.
Would be consistent with firebug's disable browser cache option, but then the
css should not be cached either).  If any css was cached, one would expect
other long cached resources to also be cached. The one JS file that was loaded
was one that should be cached for a longish time, but the other js files that
are normally cached for a short period of time were not loaded.

So yes, I think you're right in that the css was not simply just cached
(although the evidence for that is kind of iffy), looks more like it just
wasn't loaded, but I have no idea how that could happen.
