Most of the world is wrong though. The ISO standard is designed that way for a reason. Not putting the largest unit first is just silly.
Personally I can get behind YMD and DMY (while sticking to ISO would be preferrable for obvious reasons), but what on earth possessed people to come up with MDY?
Half the fucking world would beg to differ
