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 4 points 3 days ago

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

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.

[–] Ediacarium@feddit.org 83 points 4 days ago (4 children)

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

[–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 16 points 4 days ago

That’s just adding salt to the would

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

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

[–] paulbg@programming.dev 9 points 3 days ago

at least no bot will solve this

[–] mcqtom@lemmy.world 21 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Hmm. A bit redundant.

[ j ] [ uly ] [ y ]

Shoulda just been [ ul ].

[–] drangus@piefed.social 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The blank options solve that

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

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.

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 4 points 3 days ago (2 children)

My guess: someone messed up trying to split an array and split a string from it and hilarity ensued.

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

They should have included an option for BC and AD.

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

I love the month of Jay

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.

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 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?

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (3 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 3 days ago

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

[–] SnekZone@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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