UX design 101: Users will always use anything any way it allows them to.

When people test my programs, there's not even videos on xHamster nasty enough to compare what they do to them -.-

i'm going through UAT now. the users are breaking my shit in ways we never imagined

Is the weird al in the back?

*poor UX

I have also seen many programmers do the same thing but instead of software they do it with hardware lol

well, its the programers fault duuhhh, u guys dont know shit about UX nor design
SuperBeetle76
As a developer this is hilarious. Also as a developer: This is why it’s important that stakeholders input, user training and 1/2
SuperBeetle76
Airtight program flow are the pillars of a successful software development.However I know this sentiment is not going to popular among devs
buttdicks
thankyou!.gif

or u know, hire UX designers
HeyYouGinger
As a UX design grad student, yes please!!
MrWoland
This means your program is not user friendly.
craze
does this mean we found the cup licker of the post?
soulman901
I’ve seen user friendly programs get attacked with a hammer by idiots
captmcneil
I've had users misuse a browser file upload dialog. They clicked "upload" and then tried to drag and drop the selected file on the website.
captmcneil
Reason was, they could not distinguish the select-file-dialog from an Explorer window. And they did not understand modal dialogs.
captmcneil
The sad part is, the website would have even supported the drag and drop...
bbcisdadump
I've tried that before and I'm always disappointed when I can't at least drop a file on the select-file-dialog to capture the path.

That software obviously has a memory leak :/

This is what it's like when you jump back into an old game save after not touching a game for over a year.

I always swear to myself I will never do it, yet I always do lol

Is this the two girls one cup thing?

It doesn't matter how right you think you are, even if you are right, if most users are doing it wrong, that's a fault in your design.
JupitersWitch
User: "I'm not getting an authentication e-mail." Programmer: " Did you check your spam folder?" User: "What's a spam folder?"

Important rule when you're coding "Always make your software based on the assumption that the user is an utter idiot".

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

Sometimes "software" is like this:

Even more reason not to lick it.

It's the damn driblet that's always left when you drink. That happens to everyone, right?
swagb98623
So this is where the joke flew past? I won't enjoy reading this thread.
didgeboy287
Yeah, this is the work-around to a software malfunction.
machapicha5772
Never encountered that. Get some drinking lessons.
TheAssassinArtemisEntreri
Yes. This is the equivalent of getting some hot sauce on your finger and licking it off. But sure, shes a complete moron, all hail hive mind
InconspicuousCanuck
get slumped. it's a fucking meme
RaspK
One shouldn't be licking the cup like that in public, though; it's considered rude.
DrSchmolls
It's not "considered" much of anything since most people don't consider it or ever think about it happening
RaspK
Not that in and of itself, but the physical act of sticking your tongue out like that in the process of eating or drinking.
temujin9
One's snide commentary about minor peccadilloes is considerably ruder.
RaspK
Personally, I couldn't care less, but others do, and it sometimes is much easier to just act along such expectations from others.
temujin9
It can also fun to just do it harder, and watch nosey fuckers squirm. If they can't shame you, they tend to avoid you, which works for me.
RaspK
lol

She's keeping the coffee from making a stain on whatever she's setting her cup on.
RaspK
You can wipe any droplets with your hand/thumb instead.
lurkoholic
Then you have to lick your hand!
RaspK
How much coffee are you spilling?
boomdeboom
and this is why automation is bullshit
AlteredFreaks
No this is why automation is essential. More removal of idiots.
boomdeboom
Automation just ends up following the standard paths. Manual the world is your oyster. Unit tests yeah, let the dev do that.
UnusualAndyMan
Nothing can be idiot proof. They'll always come out with a better idiot.

Had a user complain that my program didn’t work, nothing happened when she clicked buttons. She was clicking a .jpg in the instruction email

There’s a quote that goes, “Nothing is idiot proof because idiots are so ingenious.”
Shanghaidoll
Then the idiot is the creator for trying to make things idiot proof.

As I say as a QA, you can test something with 500 sumulations and a couple of highend computers, cont...

but 100,000 idiots will turn your code into dumpster fire.

Wouldn't this be a user finding a workaround in flawed software.
