I wish to all web developers who make a custom dropdown for dates in which you can't just type the god damn date in to use this style of date selection for everything.

[–] Neverclear@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 4 days ago

No, you must enter your birthdate using only this back arrow that is a pixel-width away from the forward arrow. It starts on today and can only step one day at a time. Also, the calendar has to reload every time you click a button. Oh... and I put a session time-out dialog behind the calendar dropdown. Please clear cache and delete cookies to try again.

Should I worry when Novanuary is just around the corner?

My favorite month, deculyuary, which comes right after septuneugust

Ah yes, the astrological symbol of cancaurus.

What month are you? Muney? Decay? Jay? Novanugust?

[–] folaht@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 days ago

Muney sounds like a month Star Butterfly would be born on.

Tbh, despite the horrible UX I wouldn't even be mad if I saw the month dialog in the wild

In fact, depending on my mood, someone may have to figure out which month Deculyuary is.

I would be delighted if I saw something that whimsical and bad in the wild. It’s less asinine than a lot of other crap I do actually have to use that was designed by professionals.

Deculyuary sounds like a slightly more severe version of polydactyly

Feeling down? Ask your doctor about Novoctopril today.

[–] HiddenLayer555@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Ah yes, I was born in the month of Jay.

Manpril sounds like an over-the-counter erectile dysfunction medicine that's got a list of side effects taller than the bottle it comes in.

[–] isame@hexbear.net 5 points 4 days ago

One of those where you have to peel the label to read it, and it just goes on for like a foot.

June and July deserve to share the same U too. In some languages it's only the N/L that changes between them.

[–] onlooker@lemmy.ml 6 points 4 days ago

Decoctoy sounds...lewd.
