    Easy, 36-base slider with 6 place holders. All potential post codes between 000000 and ZZZZZZ.

    Put all of the postcodes in a paginated list that displays only 30 entries at a time (60 and 100 per page for premium users), only has next/previous navigation buttons, orders the entries by popularity, and goes back to the first page if you reload the website. Or an infinitely scrolling page that loads each page dynamically, but returns 429 Too Many Requests if the user scrolls too fast.

    Map the tonal range of the human voice from 00000, the lowest-pitched, to 99999, the highest-pitched. Sing a note into your microphone that corresponds to your postal code.

    EDIT: Make it a Base-36 range so as to allow letters A-Z when they are used in postal codes.

    I don't care what the particular number is, but it's a dart throwing game and you have to get all the numbers correct in one shot or start over

    I also made some dumb number entering shenanigans for https://faxyourballs.com

    My favorite was suggested by a friend: the radial button selection for every digit, but with digit “10” sorted up at the top.

    I should go add some more…

    I remember when r/ProgrammerHumor was full of hilariously bad UX/UI. There were so many amazing entries.

  • In all fairness, it’s not like an address is a well-defined thing in the first place; this form could be made better by eg adding a very small non-clickable preview map where you can manually enter coordinates, preferably in a large font of course.

    There should be one checkbox at the beginning specifying number of characters in house number. And then set of others to specify whether 1st, 2nd, ... is digit, letter, other char. Aaargh, my brain hurts just by thinking how to fill this up.

    I absolutely love these sorts of things :).

    I assume we are all familiar with User Inyerface? https://userinyerface.com/
