True, thats how my laptop displays the date. It never even mentions the month because I see that enough on other sources. I guess I just hate how month first is the default where I live more than anything. It perfectly sums up the subpar optimacy of the USA. Shit could be better, but its just not.

¿And don't you hate how US punctuation is at the end? ¿If you read an entire sentence, but you don't even know it is a question until you're at the end, then how do you know which intonation to use? ¡English is subpar and something should be done about that!

Don't even get me started on the three languages in a trench coat we call English.

¡At least two of those languages have the same problem!
