what should we call cake day?

the term “cake day” just makes me think of r*ddit. I’ve seen Lemon Day going around, but we probably want to avoid affiliation with lemon party.

not that we can tell anybody what to do anyway, and each instance could even have its own. anyway, it needs to be something that obviously means “anniversary” and doesn’t require explanation otherwise it’ll just be annoying

Well it doesn’t help that they use the cake icon for it.

Not sure what else to propose calling it but anything else would be better.

On Hexbear I’ve only ever seen it called Molotov day

tilefan OP ,

a cake has been used to represent celebration of birthdays or anniversaries for longer than we’ve been calling them cake days

I mean for some this is Lemmy for others this is Jarboa either way it’s a rodent therefore it may as well be cheese day 🧀

Although this would require agreement of most members of this free world app since some people are chees intolerant

Excising yourself from bourgeois social media day just doesn’t have a good ring to it.

tilefan OP ,

explain the jarboa thing?

SnotFlickerman ,
@SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Jerboa is the official mobile app for Lemmy.

A lemming is a type of rodent, and so is a jerboa.

@propter_hog@hexbear.net avatar

Android app made by the lemmy team is named jerboa

JetpackJackson ,

I kinda like cheese day

illi ,

There are normal cheeses, there are lactose free cheeses and vegan cheeses as well. I think that’s all possible bases covered? Beside, cheese is delicious (I have yet to have a delicious vegan cheese but I’m told they exist - probably didn’t get here yet or too pricey for me)

  • but that’s beside the point :D).

I vote cheese day, your logic is bullet proof.

KittenBiscuits ,

And even if it isn’t, then you’ll have Swiss cheese.

@SorteKanin@feddit.dk avatar

But for some it is Mastodon or Mbin or PieFed or whatever. It shouldn’t be specific to lemmy.

LarkinDePark ,

Fediversary? Lemmyversary?

AnarchoNoAdjective ,

Happy lem-aversery would work I think

tilefan OP ,

but I’ll get that confused with the day that we celebrate the lunar excursion module from Apollo 11

themeatbridge ,

Excuse you, sir, but you should be keeping the LEM in you hearts every day. And you call yourself an America. For shame.

sping ,

Yep, I was thinking Lemmyversary.

SorteKanin ,
@SorteKanin@feddit.dk avatar

It shouldn’t be lemmy specific. Lemmy is just one fediverse app.

mo_lave ,

Cake day.

Make it as generic as possible

tilefan OP ,

that’s not generic, that’s from Reddit as far as I can tell. “anniversary” would be generic

originalucifer ,
@originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com avatar

it doesnt become generic unless we make it ubiquitous

mbin already has it .

BlucifersVeinyAnus ,

Free slurpee day, that’s my cake day too

tilefan OP ,

that honestly kind of chaps my ass. why not just call it “date joined”

originalucifer ,
@originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com avatar

awww but i like the little cake icon and everything

im not going to let the enshitification of reddit take away everything i like. im also a bit salty about 'karma'

tilefan OP ,

calling it karma was so fucking smarmy

EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted ,
@EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

chaps my ass

Huh… Never heard that one before.

Zagorath ,
@Zagorath@aussie.zone avatar

Yeah it’s officially built in to Lemmy’s web UI too.

ech ,

Cake Day is from birthdays, mate. You know? That annual celebration of creation where there’s usually cake?

Stop letting spez live in your head and just enjoy where you’re at.

tilefan OP ,

which is why I’m asking for sources of it being used prior to reddit. I’m not arguing one way or another

ech ,

I’m not arguing one way or another

You literally were.

tilefan OP ,

I don’t know what I’m supposed to do with people who can’t just scroll up and read

badcommandorfilename ,

It’s your Beanniversary 🫘

LaGG_3 ,
@LaGG_3@hexbear.net avatar

I’ve wished people a happy accountiversary before shrug-outta-hecks

tilefan OP ,

we’re going to need sub-names for people’s alts as well

propter_hog ,
@propter_hog@hexbear.net avatar

I thought accountiversary was another name for tax day

jalapeno_popper561 ,

Pie day?

themeatbridge ,

That’s March 14th, Albert Einstein’s birthday. But I don’t celebrate that, because I’m a Tauist.

I’m down with this.

@propter_hog@hexbear.net avatar

Fucking pie, hell yeah

SnotFlickerman ,
@SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Maybe to commemorate one of the first viral posts, about not pooping for three days, it could be Poop Day.

MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown ,

Bean day!

tilefan OP ,

coprolites of the internet

DrSleepless ,

The Artist Formerly Known As Cake Day or TAFKACD if you’re into the whole brevity thing.

tilefan OP ,

just come up with an unpronounceable symbol to replace it

tilefan OP ,

Lemabration day.

originalucifer ,
@originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com avatar

we need to take cake day back. fuck reddit

.

tilefan OP ,

I like the attitude but I never liked the term in the first place

acockworkorange ,

So?

tilefan OP ,

so I made this post.

Annual commemorative pastry observance

tilefan OP ,

I like the idea that the event is about honoring pastry, rather than measuring time

expatriado ,

i think cake day predates reddit

tilefan OP ,

I was digging into that. can you find it? the top results claim that it was just from Reddit putting a picture of a birthday cake next to your join date

BlucifersVeinyAnus ,

I vote for garlic bread day

You’re account is tagged as a bot. Is that intentional? It’s a checkbox in account settings.

BlucifersVeinyAnus ,

Thanks, I think I got it turned off, do you mind confirming? Apparently I can’t see it

MentalEdge ,
@MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz avatar

Yup, gone.

BlucifersVeinyAnus ,

Thanks, I appreciate you

AlligatorBlizzard ,

I think ace people are using that already. /s
