Someone asks about romance and gets a LECTURE on date formatting instead. Because nothing says "I'm emotionally available" quite like having strong opinions about DD/MM/YYYY versus MM/DD/YYYY versus YYYY-MM-DD. The real plot twist? They're not wrong though. Other formats ARE confusing, especially when Americans write 03/04/2024 and the rest of the world has to play a fun guessing game of "is that March 4th or April 3rd?" DD/MM/YYYY eliminates the chaos and brings order to the universe. Who needs candlelit dinners when you can have properly structured temporal data? Romance is dead, long live ISO standards!
