You and I have very different definitions of fun! I got annoyed when it asked me for a profile picture and I just closed it.

#132Well...I did it...somehow...I did... 00:06:57 That seems too fast...apparently i've experienced these things far too much. It actually was filling me with rage. I came close to saying fuck it...I really did... Well done to the creators...you managed to, with 100% accuracy, capture every single thing that's horrible about signing up to websites. That bow thing though...gotta admit, was worth it just for the chuckle I…
Wait you can advance beyond page 1?

My current real world frustration: a date picker for birthdate which starts in current year and I believe the native selector in Android/Chrome doesn't let you select a year. You hit left arrow to go down month by month. Am I crazy and did I miss this? Ive seen it a few times now!
I wonder if there's a way to get the datepicker to open on a specific date... find the median age of all users and open the datepicker in that year haha
It's actually quite easy. I did just such a thing earlier this week.

I got 6 minutes and 7 seconds, half of which I think I spent trying to figure out the capcha. Also, if you got to the capcha and got it on the first try, go back and fail it a few times. They have some really clever ones.
I bailed on the captcha after 3 tries. It was infuriating, which is my experience with real captchas more often than I'd like to admit.

I nearly quit when it said "your age and birthdate don't match". Glad I got through because the bow and check also gave me a laugh.
I absolutely expected that. Having both birthdate and age was the Chekhov's gun on that form. The only thing better would be to have them on different form pages.
I expected that one, but somehow got the gender wrong. I hate those radio selects!

I have a personal punishment policy for any obvious violation of UX/UI - they will permanently and irrevokably lose me as a customer. Even if they fix it, I won't budge. Leadership needs to use their own products and if they allow this to go to production, I wonder what they're doing behind the scenes. Small battles that I pick, but by god it is so satisfying.
So a small shop that can only pay 1 fresh bootcamp dev who is trying their hardest doesn’t get your business because they can’t keep up with several hundred Frontend google devs. Seems a little silly and absolutist.
There are levels of badness that can only be achieved through sheer talent or diligence.
Both are red flags.

#138I hate it. I love it.

#139Only thing missing is deleting everything you entered into the entire form any time there is an error message
No, clearing 2 random fields every time.
You probably won't notice that way ;)
Had a real website for a real store do that to me a few days ago.

Is that time including reading the terms or without?
