Here's something that annoys the snot out of me, way past any deserved annoyance. I hate when dates are in any format other than YYYY-MM-DD. I don't care what the justification is. Those formats are not easily sortable and they are far too easily confused. I can't tell you how many times my birthday's been listed as the sixth of March. And I seriously loathe forms which insist on writing it out the mixed-up MM/DD/YY or DD/MM/YY way, because guaran-friggin'-teed, somebody will think it's the other and then there's no telling what'll happen. Tell me... just how far away is 09/10/12?
All right, rant over.
