However, saying “July 23rd” feels more natural and efficient to me than “The 23rd of July”. That translates to me writing 07/23 over 23/07. To each their own though, I’m not gonna harsh any mellows over date formatting.
How about March Fourteenth as “American PI-Day” and 22.07. as “international, sensible and widely understood PI-Day”, each according to the used date format?

You’re forgetting tau day, June 28th. That’s 2*pi. Then we get 3 holidays.
I propose that during a 113 day period we have exactly 355 pi days. That would be an avrage of 3,14159 pi days per year
FUCK DD/MM FORMAT YYYY-MM-DD IS SUPERIOR
