I think mm/dd/yyyy is better than dd/mm/yyyy, because you can sort by the first number and the dates will be in chronological order (though I agree with the below comment that YYYY MM DD is the best).
There was once a dumb-crooks news story about some burglars who broke into a house, found an urn labelled Charlie and snorted the contents, thinking it must be cocaine. It was, of course, the ashes of a pet dog named Charlie.

The fun thing about October is that whenever the date is written for the first 10 days it looks like a score.

Technically, the wife of an earl is a Countess not Mrs.
strawberrysocial@lemmy.world · 21 pts · 2y
Ya but in this case he's not an actual earl, Earl is his first name.

If my last name was Grey I would definitely name my son Earl. Unfortunately my last name isn't Grey and I can't have children.

I guess you could name a pet Earl Grey.

If we're looking for inaccuracies, I don't know how anyone could look at ashes and believe that it's tea.
