If you think that&#x27;s bad, wait until you see the crazy things people do with dates. Day&#x2F;Month&#x2F;Year is crazy enough, but then you have people using the nonsensical Month&#x2F;Day&#x2F;Year.<p>I hold out hope that one day we&#x27;ll all be using Year&#x2F;Month&#x2F;Day, but given how slowly the metric conversion is going I hold out little hope (as a Brit I can&#x27;t apologise enough for the imperial system).
