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...

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

Novemugust is what I’ve been feeling since last November.

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

[–] Ediacarium@feddit.org 88 points 6 days ago (4 children)

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

That’s just adding salt to the would

Decay is my favourite month

Wake me up when Septempril ends

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

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.

Managust, the manliest of months.

Hmm. A bit redundant.

[ j ] [ uly ] [ y ]

Shoulda just been [ ul ].

[–] drangus@piefed.social 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The blank options solve that

Best CAPTCHA ever!

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

[–] Deathray5@lemmynsfw.com 13 points 6 days ago

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

Febroctobus

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 8 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (6 children)

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

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

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

[–] eronth@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 6 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 6 days ago* (last edited 6 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?

This is a repost from last japril.

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 6 days ago

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

[–] SnekZone@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 6 days ago (1 children)

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