Been in the US for a few years now, this format still drives me crazy :( It isn't logical at all

  I've been in the US since birth and I write in the YYYY-MM-DD format on all documents.

    I didn't start doing this till I started programming. It never occurred to me how much more logical this approach was till then.

      Sometimes I wish we had standards for these across the world. One metric system (miles or km? please agree on one), standard set of traffic signs (without any text), just drive on one side of the road (left or right?) etc - obviously some of these aren't practical (like driving) but some are (like establishing uniform traffic/road signs without any text, just pictures). I know it is wishful thinking :(

        Well we had a standard for driving (galloping) along the road, then Hitler came...
