MM/DD/YY make literally no fucking sense.
Americans are fucking stupid
>>72113685
Yes indeed they are my Anglo friend
It makes perfect sense.
There are the fewest number of possibilities for month (12), the next fewest number of possibilities for day (28-31), then the largest number of possibilities for years (2016+).
>>72113685
Nobody cares what you think.
ITS 2016

>fucking stupid
We created the internet, nice try muhammed
>britcucks are so stupid they use rocks to measure units of weight
>>72113685
In every month there's a number of days that's in a given year, so mm/dd/yy makes perfect sense
>>72114086
days pass faster than months. is more logical DD/MM/YY,
We write the date in multiple formats depending on the occasion. Doing homework? You may write 4/26/16. Signing a contract? It may say "on this 26th day of April, 2016."

Whatever floats your goat
I don't care how you write dates.
Burger/fry/shake?
It makes perfect sense.
You don't say 26th April, 2016.
You say April 26th, 2016
You read dates as "April Twenty-six, Two-Thousand Sixteen", so we write 4/26/16. Not a difficult concept, britcuck

I fail to see how this matters at even the slightest. Sure it would be nice if we all could use the same system to avoid confusion but it would have been easier like few hundred years a go.

Always so predictable and pathetic.

ISO 8601 is the only correct way to write dates. Prove me wrong.
>>72114685
Re-read what you just said.
"Hey Tyler/Corey/Chad, what's the date today?"
"The 26th of April"
The date of the month you're in makes way more sense than month first. Everyone already knows it's April you fucking pleb...
Fucking Americans..
>>72113685
It's formatted that way to print wall calendars more efficiently.
>>72115156
Or I can just say April 26th.
>big number
>bigger number
>biggest number
It makes sense
Stop being "that kid" murica.
>>72115156
Today is April 26th
What other country uses that? What's wrong with it? We've been using that every since and it always confuses me to look at european dates like what the fuck. 26, April, 2016?

4th of july, 2016
Your argument is invalid
euros are fucking autistic writing their dates like that.
>>72113685
That's why I use the one true date format.
>>72115353
Today is the 26th of April.
>>72114685
What's the day after the 3rd of July and before the 5th of July?
Is it July 4th? No. It's not.
>>72113685
EP.YYYY.MM.DD.HH.MM.SS.MS.NS
epoch.year.day.hor.minute.second... etc...
really the best way
in day to day practice we will only use
YYYY.MM.DD
FOR ALL TIME
>>72115500
>>72115637
It's July 4th.
>>72115637
That's how we say it.
month is a more relevant piece of information. if you are looking at a list of dates its more efficient to list the month first since thats the first thing your eye sees.
no wonder europes economy sucks ass

>>72115849
>being this retarded to not know what month you're in without looking in a calendar
>>72114379
This. A date system with the months in front of the days because there's less units is the equivalent of digital clock with the hours in front of the minutes because there's only 24 hours in a day but 60 minutes.
>>72117382
And then putting the years at the end is like writing CXXVI as 621.
>>72115326

>2016+2-1-1
>not using YY/MM/DD
Lmao
I used to do this until I started browsing /pol/ and watching Nazi documentaries. Now putting 4th May, 2016 is much better sounding than May 4th, 2016. It makes me feel as if though I am organizing a Panzer assault on that day.
>>72114685
But I say 26th April, 2016
>kaheskuudes huhtikuuta kakstuhattakuustoista
not April 26th, 2016
>huhtikuun kaheskuudes kakstuhattakuustoista
In every day use, month is the most relevant information so it goes first.
Day is the 2nd most relevant.
Year is the 3rd.
It's in order of importance.
>>72118145
This. When the system was first instituted, month was vastly more important due to harvesting seasons and such, and it still continues to mean more than the exact day.
>>72115565
This fucking broken diagram makes it look as though there are 12 months in a day and 30 days in a year.
>DD/MM/YYYY
>shortest length of time/next longest/longest length of time
you get the most relevant information first: which day it is, then which month, then which year. this is the only logical date format.
>>72118728
day isn't most relevant
for instance why do i care what exact day i made a payment. i care what month not what day
I love every American system.
I love using pounds and feet over ilbs.
>>72118145
>>72114498
Don't they measure things in units of BBC now in Sweden?
>>72118851
That's because you're a fucking moron.
Just use the understood convention or your country ffs
>>72113685
amount of possible months < amount of possible days < amount of possible years
Makes sense to me commie
>>72114308
>britcucks so insecure they had to make their gallon bigger
>or maybe it was just so they could get drunk faster on a bigger pint
>>72118728
Month is far more relevant. Unless you already know what month it is, someone telling you that it's the "22nd" is worthless and communicates almost nothing, since there are 12 different "22nd"s in a year, all more or less evenly spaced out.
>>72114836

Presumably slipping into a coma is obviously a lot more prevalent in America than it is in first world countries.
>>72117803
This is the most fucking annoying format, as with the year at the end I can quickly guess if it's either DD/MM or MM/DD but with the year at the front I don't know if it's going to be YY/DD/MM or YY/MM/DD if it's unlucky enough to be less than 12 days into a given month.
>>72120590
Who the fuck even uses YY/DD/MM anyhow?
And who the fuck is red-pilled enough to use year-in-front but cucked enough to use only 2 digits for the year?
If I see the year first, I know that whoever wrote it was sensible enough to understand the concept of significant digits, and what follows are the month and day.
