  • Good thing, they posted a clarification as the US uses MM/DD instead of the conventional DD/MM. So that date could be read as 9th of October instead of 10th of September. It boggles the mind, why this strange date format was ever chosen by the US 😂.
  • We do a lot of strange things, from power to the way we measure temperature. I don't get it either.
  • 😂, temperature is the worst one as how on earth does -17.7 degrees Celsius = 0?? 😂😂. As when you convert 0 Fahrenheit you get -17.7 Celsius. With 0 degrees Celsius when converted you get 32 Fahrenheit 😂😂😂😂. When I saw the weather reports during the summer showing 100 degrees, i had to remind myself it was in Fahrenheit 😂.
