this is how my apps look when I try optimising them, just to gut them of all its usability because 'why have an array of values if I can reuse this string or integer' like a fucking idiot

Ask your doctor if Moctopril™ is right for you!

My insurance won't cover it so I have to take Novemugust...

Jocktober is a workout month. Gotta get fit for my costume.

[–] Ediacarium@feddit.org 86 points 5 days ago (4 children)

This is disgusting. Who enters dates in month/day/year order?

[–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 17 points 5 days ago

That’s just adding salt to the would

Like my father's come and past, 1900 years has gone so fast!

Sounds like a medicine I shouldn't take before asking my doctor if it's right for me.

Decay is my favourite month

I think of this moment probably once a month and I don't know how to make it stop.

I unironically love this. Of course it isn't practical in the least, but I love it.

Hmm. A bit redundant.

[ j ] [ uly ] [ y ]

Shoulda just been [ ul ].

[–] drangus@piefed.social 13 points 5 days ago (1 children)

The blank options solve that

Best CAPTCHA ever!

Might be a decent way to sort out bots, actually.

12 options as 21. At least it counts as lines of code for a performance review

Febroctobus

Genuine Question:

if you could split the month names into 3, how would you split them to maximise their choice overlap?

  • "em" is a good overlap for nov/sept/dec
  • "uar" is good for jan/febr

"Lousy Smarch Weather"

'Do Not Touch -Willie'

"Hey, good advice!"

[–] paulbg@programming.dev 9 points 5 days ago

at least no bot will solve this

My wife and I always wanted a joctober baby...

For a truly peak UI make the text very light gray on a white background, in the thinnest font possible.

[–] eronth@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 5 days ago (3 children)

I understand that bad ui is a fun meme and all, but how did this one even cross their mind as an idea for a bad UI? This is a new level of convoluted I would not have even considered.

Decoctorch sounds kind of cool though. Anyone up for some calendar reform?

Novemy showers bring Septanugust flowers.

At least that's what my grandma would say.

febroctorch has the best weather in Argentina on Tuesdays

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 11 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

It's basically the UI equivalent of this:

Yes, it's a fully-functional date picker and also deviously, wildly, uncomfortably outside of aesthetic norms. Also, there's a lots of fun, invalid combinations of input outside of the usual "February 30th" shenanigans.

Why yes, that's my birthday: the 32nd of Septunepril. What's the problem?

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 11 points 5 days ago

This is a repost from last japril.

They should have included an option for BC and AD.

[–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Funny month names are all well and good, but the only ones you can actually spell here are:

January, March, May, September, November, and December.

Otherwise, it's

Febranuary, Japril, Juney, Julyber, Maugust, and Moctober

[–] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 5 days ago

I think you can use the white space so it's "[ ]april"

[–] SnekZone@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Kinda true. If the whitespace from the top row doesn't get removed, you are left with "febr uary".

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 7 points 5 days ago

With white space you can make every month
