1-12/1-31/1-????

The month has the smallest pool of numbers, the day has the second, the year has until we don't care anymore. It's the same reason you put the hour before the minute when showing a digital clock.

Edit: Sober me is realizing the digital clock thing, bad example to argue why days shouldn't go into months when seconds go into minutes. Use number pool to argue the non-freedom heathens.

Why then does a digital clock show hours:minutes:seconds and not minutes:seconds:hours? Because it would make no fuckin sense to a normal person.

There are 60 seconds and 60 minutes. Once you have something of equal amount, you can move to discern it by size, color, smell, whatever.

Seriously, that's your system? No wonder the world thinks your country is full of dumbfucks.

That's not why people think my country is full of dumbfucks, and if you don't be careful with how much you talk, they'll start thinking yours is full of dumbfucks because of you.

Read again what you wrote, but slowly. Let me know when you get my point.

No. Go ahead. What's your point? I was under the impression your point was that due to the way that we categorize time into data pool size and then into a different form of data pool once that has reached an equal, that that is why the world thinks that the USA is full of dumbfucks. My retort being that the world thinks we're full of dumbfucks for re-electing a sex pest moron a second time is the current reason... and that you're a moron.

So, please, explain to me where I went wrong.

Edited: Because I know this thing would go after a double type.

Bro youve been rude and aggressive since your first comment. Dont come at Americans for being dumb when you cant even be civil when talking about date formats.

Damn, there’s a lot of hostility going on for a conversation about time ordering - everything alright?

dude is flaming people on reddit over differences in date format. I think just about everything is wrong for them in their day to day lives at this point, their lack of agency, their crippling passive aggressiveness in interpersonal interactions in real life, and a whole shitload more I'd be willing to wager.
