ROllerozxaLast night I published a blog post collecting some of the jokes and other humourous things that exist in the public #Android API.
Everything from methods to check if the user is a monkey, a goat, a method to check if it's "the final countdown", a device policy to disallow fun, to a secret undocumented <blink> element in Android's view layout system.

Jokes and Humour in the public Android API
Previously I have covered a relatively obscure now-removed placeholder string in Android that doubles as an easter egg, the fictitious carrier by the name of El Telco Loco. But this time it is about methods and other parts of the publicly facing Android API that may generally be more humourous than they are useful. Easter eggs, jokes, whatever you want to call them, that are visible to Android app developers rather than regular users.
