For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don’t want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That’s ludicrous!

That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use “less” when they should use “fewer”

        Plus slashes are more likely to be blocked by arbitrary character set validation, and fail. Dashes more clearly distinguish the segments and are more compatible

          And don’t work in filenames. But yes, files being in the same order when sorted lexicographic or chronologically makes me smile.

        I have (minor) beef with ISO 8601. It’s very wishy washy about fractional seconds. It’s like “eh, idc if you use a period or a comma to separate them”

        What you’re saying makes s lot of sense, but how do you speak dates?

        When did you start working your current job? It was in 2022, Aprill 11th

        What’s your anniversary date? We were married on 2012, September the 9th.

        People don’t talk that way, which is how writing them down got to be the MMDDYYYY format in the first place. Technically, it was MMDDYY exclusively until mid 1999.
