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”

    Good for computers and spreadsheets, bad for people in mundane use.

    Most of the time I know what year I’m dealing with so it goes in the back. Putting the day first doesn’t help until I know what month we mean, so the month goes first.

    Nightmare for file names and stuff though.

      I see you woke up and chose violence. Dueling pistols at dawn it is then

      For me, it’s actually much better for file name sorting - and just about everything else. It numerically orders items in a logical manner allowing for batch processing of large sets of data using wildcards or regex, but I understand that it may not fit everyone’s usecase…which is why, it seems everyday, there’s someone introducing a new date format
