I'm H"app"y for you?
September 8, 2010 8:10 PM Subscribe
So my boyfriend posted his first app to the Android Marketplace. I want to get him a cookie cake thing to celebrate it. But I need a witty and Androidy related phrase to have written on it. I'm not witty. The best(i use that word in the lightest sense) I've come up with is "Condroidulations!" That is stupid. Please help! Portmantos(obviously) welcome!
Best answer: I like condroidulations

Best answer: "Condroidulations" is so clunky and ridiculous that it's actually sort of adorable. Barring some really excellent suggestion, I say go for it.

Best answer: I like "condroidulations!" It's goofy, no doubt, but it's also a lot of fun. My smile has become a little wider each time I've said it.
I also want to recommend "condroidulations!" to any lurker who's been waiting for a good idea for a user name before s/he ponies up the $5 to join. Just be sure not to forget the exclamation mark, you lucky lurker you.

Best answer: This IS the 'droid you are looking for?
All your 'droid are belong to us?
This cake is geo-tagged?
I tried to make you an app, but all I could come up with was this crappy cake?

Best answer: I like condroidulations! Maybe change the color or bold the "droid" part so it's condroidulations.

Best answer: I kinda like Condroidulations myself. If that doesn't float your boat then you can put your message in a snippet of code:
TextView tv = new TextView(this);posted by damn dirty ape at 8:37 PM on September 8, 2010
tv.setText("Congrats on your new app!");
setContentView(tv);
Response by poster: Artiung..The robot is in the plans. He modded it into his mascot.
Inturnaround..that will be perfect! for his birthday in three weeks.
Thanks everyone for the vote of confidence. However... I have until tomorrow morning, so new ideas still welcome.

Best answer: You could also cut out a QR code template and dust some cocoa powder over a bit of frosting and leave a QR code on the cookie. Might be a bit more diffivult to do that writing out condroidulations though which is well funny already.

Glad to see that more than one person took my advice in this thread. It is, in all honesty, the best I've ever given.
Yay, Condroidulations! (in both senses).

Be superly nerdy, and put an Android "This app will require these permissions" thing on the cake, with
"Congratulatory Language"
"Delicious Processing Unit"
And such on it.
But still, go for Condroidulations.
