Date Format Confusion

Alright, listen up, you big ol' dummy! You're probably scratching your head like a bear with an itch it can't reach, huh? This joke is based on a simple fact you clearly missed: different countries write dates differently! The USA writes dates as Month/Day/Year (MM/DD/YYYY). So, '9/11' means September 11th. But most other places, like the UK (where 'Brits' are from), write dates as Day/Month/Year (DD/MM/YYYY). So, to a Brit, '9/11' would mean the 9th of November! The joke is that the US is remembering a tragic event on September 11th, and the Brits are confused because for them, nothing significant happened on November 9th that they need to 'never forget.' It's a classic mix-up, and you, my friend, are living proof that some people need things spelled out!
