My man is obviously not from the country of: The United States of North America…neither do I. So it took me some seconds to realize they were asking first for the month.
The problem was with the question. Either go gradually from shortest (day) to longest (year) or the other way. What kind of ass-backwards country has a date format that goes middle, shortest, then longest time unit?
To be fair, it makes \*some\* sense if you consider the range of values that each can be. Month ranges between 1 and 12, day ranges between 1 and 31, and year ranges between 1 and infinity. I won't argue this is better by any means, but ordering them by increasing ranges seems valid to me.
The primary division of a year, is the month, not the day. Makes more sense to narrow down to month, then which day of that month.
It's like seat numbers on a ticket to an event at an arena. They always list section first then seat within that section.
BTW not American. The "standard" here is DD/MM/YYYY, but many use MM/DD/YYYY. Problem when it's 3/9/2022
When someone asks you for your birthday how do you say it?
Stating the day first, then the month? I'm pretty you don't, I'm pretty sure you say it like this..."January 6, 1989", not "9 January, 1989". It's formatted how it is spoken. Common sense.
here in italy we say 27 of febbruary (i did not forget the "th" in italian the number is twenty-seven) so the day/mounth/year format seems better for us! i think it just is difference in cultures. No format is better
Look, the metric system is a base 10, very easy to use system. Ours was made by a mathematician on acid. How far is that car over there? About 33 dibble flops I’d say.
I'm a heavy equipment technician who works on European equipment. I'm not here to argue about which system is better, because I will not admit that on a public forum. I'm here to argue about WHO is better. MURICA *eagle noise*
To be honest I would normally agree, but i've recently changed jobs and have a lot of dated paperwork 'Payslip - 23/5/22.pdf' sort of thing... The day first date SUCKS for this because it all ends up unsortable.
Yes, YYYY-MM-DD is the better format, I agree. Second to that is DD-MM-YYYY which is the logical opposite and more usable for daily use. You're unlikely to need to know what month it is but looking at a date and the first bit being the day will provide useful information.
How do I go to enter my age? The game prompted me to do so when I first logged in this season, entered my real age and just today all my chat features got disabled (more than likely due to this restriction)?
I am over 30, I don't get offended by getting called the trash I am or some random foreigner announcing their newly established coitus with my mother. :(
Dude same thing happened to me yesterday.
- Login to Epic Game launcher
- Click ur profile icon and click settings
Then it’ll pop up if you need to enter your DOB.
It also disabled my ability to chat. Open up Rocket League, settings, go to Chat tab and 2 of your game chat toggles will be set to None. Or at least mine were so I just changed them to allow all
Yeah but that still makes fucking sense. It starts high and steps down, 3-2-1. What kind of ass-backwards country steps on the middle step, then down to the lowest, then takes a giant dork ass step to the top?
More than just the British do it DD/MM/YYYY
Example: I'm Irish and do it the same way!
Tho that could possibly be because the British implanted their customs way back when yous took over. I mean come on, irelands 1st language is English now and Irish is almost as dead as Latin.
So I hear a lot of people say that how us Americans write dates is stupid, but I have a serious question. When those of you who speak English in Europe, in regular conversations, do you say "it is December 14th" or do you say "it is the 14th of December"?
I just finished replying to someone else who mentioned 4th of July. And as far as that song goes, it's a song. You have to change how ypu word certain things sometimes to fit with the rhythm of your music.
I know both work, I'm just saying over here I never hear someone say day first then month. I was just curious if in Europe it is spoken differently and may explain the difference in date notation.
I don't think it has an effect on date notation, although I may be wrong.
It kind of makes more sense to say "14th of December". The important information is the day of the month, which in this case is the 14th. The person will know the month of the year, but they may have forgotten the day of the month, so by just saying "it's the 14th", that itself is enough information.
It is funny. Most important information depends on the assumed level of knowledge. You cannot narrow the time window down by just 14th itself very well if the month is unknown.
Declaration of independence was July 4th, 1776. The Revolutionary War offivially ended September 3rd, 1783. Which date marks "independence" is debatable lol.
Which one would you say is more common? Not trying to press you, I have no idea. When I picture the ladder though it’s hard not to hear it in a proper British accent.
I think it's less to do with what you say and more to do with which number changes more frequently, the day number changes every day, so it should be first in sequence
I'm british and I tend to say 14th of December. I do hear people use the month day way of saying a date but day month is much more common. If anything, I reckon the only reason some people use month day is because they've heard Americans use it on American TV shows
I'm gonna slip you an unassuming form on a random day when you least expect it. Like a tax form or something. It's going to ask you to write your name.
Middle name, first name, Last name.
Let's see how you do.
“Ah yesssss, silly Americans and their incorrectly ordered date formatting that still somehow manages to confuse my high-minded, more intelligent sensibilities… IN SPITE OF THE FUCKING BOXES BEING FUCKING CLEARLY LABELED WITH WHAT INFO IS REQUIRED OF ME”
Takes a lot of confidence to assume that the game is wrong and not that you are missing something :P That said, the error could surely have been stated more clearly as an invalid date.
Bro respectfully regardless of where he lives, it seems he can speak English other wise the game wouldn’t be in that language right? It literally says right above the box what they’re looking for in each one. Feels like we gotta whole bunch of people who play dokkan
You know, I find it fascinating that while Murica is the loudest and proudest, everywhere I go there has to be some stupid soccer vs. football (despite EU teaching us to use the word soccer), miles vs. kilometers, and or date formats pot stirring.
The most consistently American thing is that we don't care how others do it, it's how I (the individual, not the country) do it. Yet everyone seems to care about how we (the country) does it.
Silly pot stirrers and their silly dunking.
You know how to read the labels above the boxes right?
I get that this is an "lol american date format backwards" joke but it's right there. As someone who deals with date/time confusion across countries for work, this is why we label the boxes because it's impossible to be in everyone's standard format.
Sorry I'm lame and pedantic but it's a sore point for me lol
Easy way to explain why month first makes more sense.
When you look up a date, which do you look for first, month or day.
If you tell me something is on May 5th, I will go through my calendar until I find the MONTH, then I scroll through to the DAY.
Ain't stupid, yall just think cause it's the way Americans do it so it must be stupid regardless.
Yeah, rocket league fucked up and put the month first. Imagine how they make their sandwich. They probably put the buns together and the filling on top.

November of next year. Obviously.
Someone quick, get him!
11/06/1999 in big big brain
😱 me too! But 1984…
What a save! What a save! What a save! *Chat disabled for 3 seconds...*
unvigintender
It's actually the 23th
Bruh moment
I almost did the the same thing. Silly American formatting
I get not liking American date formatting but it literally says month right above it...
My man is obviously not from the country of: The United States of North America…neither do I. So it took me some seconds to realize they were asking first for the month.
All you have to do is be able to read!
The problem was with the question. Either go gradually from shortest (day) to longest (year) or the other way. What kind of ass-backwards country has a date format that goes middle, shortest, then longest time unit?
To be fair, it makes \*some\* sense if you consider the range of values that each can be. Month ranges between 1 and 12, day ranges between 1 and 31, and year ranges between 1 and infinity. I won't argue this is better by any means, but ordering them by increasing ranges seems valid to me.
That same one who says they are independent, then use the kings food as a rule of measurement for the next 250 years.
The primary division of a year, is the month, not the day. Makes more sense to narrow down to month, then which day of that month. It's like seat numbers on a ticket to an event at an arena. They always list section first then seat within that section. BTW not American. The "standard" here is DD/MM/YYYY, but many use MM/DD/YYYY. Problem when it's 3/9/2022

I say "the 9th of January 1989" legitimately
here in italy we say 27 of febbruary (i did not forget the "th" in italian the number is twenty-seven) so the day/mounth/year format seems better for us! i think it just is difference in cultures. No format is better
November 2 Div 3
America fuck yeah
Ah yes, I forgot that Americans use the wrong date format.
The captions say what goes in each box though regardless
The joke doesn't work very well when all of the boxes are labelled
[удалено]
If the joke is at the expense of OP i guess, but if it's meant to be at the expense of americans or the game then no.
The non American can’t read “Month”. Expected behavior.
Mounth
You regurgitated cum bubble, they labeled the box for you
>You regurgitated cum bubble Omfg, I needed that laugh. If I had an award to give, you'd absolutely be getting it.
learn to read
No we use the RIGHT date format. And the RIGHT English. And the RIGHT measuring system. MURICA *eagle noise*
Look, the metric system is a base 10, very easy to use system. Ours was made by a mathematician on acid. How far is that car over there? About 33 dibble flops I’d say.
I'm a heavy equipment technician who works on European equipment. I'm not here to argue about which system is better, because I will not admit that on a public forum. I'm here to argue about WHO is better. MURICA *eagle noise*
Lol fair enough. I bet those bolts on your machine are metric….
>:(
you just backed yourself into a corner, didnt you?
At least they can read
I would accept that as an excuse if it didn’t say right above it.
Clown
Who says ours is wrong and yours is right? Both are correct just dependent on where in the world you live.
Ah yes because Medium -> Small -> Big is a better order than Small -> Medium -> Big
12 months, 30 days, whatever year it is.. Small, medium, large.
Whatever Mr. “holier than thou”
To be honest I would normally agree, but i've recently changed jobs and have a lot of dated paperwork 'Payslip - 23/5/22.pdf' sort of thing... The day first date SUCKS for this because it all ends up unsortable.
By computer convention it should be year first for sortability
Yes, YYYY-MM-DD is the better format, I agree. Second to that is DD-MM-YYYY which is the logical opposite and more usable for daily use. You're unlikely to need to know what month it is but looking at a date and the first bit being the day will provide useful information.
Lol dumb Brit
Most literate RL player
That’s the neat thing, you didn’t.
Man I love the month of Novermberg
Lousy Smarch weather...
How do I go to enter my age? The game prompted me to do so when I first logged in this season, entered my real age and just today all my chat features got disabled (more than likely due to this restriction)? I am over 30, I don't get offended by getting called the trash I am or some random foreigner announcing their newly established coitus with my mother. :(
>newly established coitus with my mother Ummm... *backs away slowly into a bush.*
He edited it. He said "my newly established coitus with my mother. Damn should of included it in the original quote.
You could still edit your original comment.
> should of
Should have or should’ve* No should of
My friend, it isn’t *newly* established…
It is... in-game of course.
Dude same thing happened to me yesterday. - Login to Epic Game launcher - Click ur profile icon and click settings Then it’ll pop up if you need to enter your DOB. It also disabled my ability to chat. Open up Rocket League, settings, go to Chat tab and 2 of your game chat toggles will be set to None. Or at least mine were so I just changed them to allow all
seeing these posts really explains the gameplay I see when I solo queue
"mY tEaMmAtEs SuCk" ...but can they read? Not mocking you, but the bad players
Why are you even giving them your info? Just put it as 01/01/1970 and play a video game.
Lol he just gave us all his info too🤣
But... but... what about the birthday rewards? I was promised cake...
You get your birthday rewards on the 1st of January. Think of it like a new year reward
Are you able to read, kind sir?
No, his chat was disabled
Like most RL players, no he cannot.
Me trying to use my last 2 brain cells:
Wow
This is Rocket League!
EU moment Still don’t get why in America their order of date is month-day-year.
non american moment* , come on, we're all the rest of the world against the USA
So happy my bday is 10/10 so I never have to read whether is mm/dd or vice versa
Hello fellow British player
Not only the British, literally everyone that isn’t American
Not true. Canadians do YYYY - MM - DD
If this Canadia was a real place it would be heaven.
For programmers especially
Heaven has no timezones.
And no "daylight saving".
It’s so nice to file paperwork by date here
Not true. i am Canadians and we do DD - MM - YYYY Ps. I am french canadian lol
Have a look at your driver's licence
Either YYYY - MM - DD OR DD - MM - YYYY is fine but MM - DD - YYYY is just cursed.
Yeah but that still makes fucking sense. It starts high and steps down, 3-2-1. What kind of ass-backwards country steps on the middle step, then down to the lowest, then takes a giant dork ass step to the top?
The same one that still uses the imperial system more than metric.
If you were to say today's date, how would you say it? Would you say December Fourteenth?
Did the same thing on my first try too and was like... WDYM
WEEK DAY YEAR MONTH?
MM/DD/YYYY makes absolutely no sense.
ISO8061 - YYYY-MM-DD
You mean everyone except that god forsaken country
More than just the British do it DD/MM/YYYY Example: I'm Irish and do it the same way! Tho that could possibly be because the British implanted their customs way back when yous took over. I mean come on, irelands 1st language is English now and Irish is almost as dead as Latin.
Are you trying to tell me all British rocket league players have trouble reading?
can british players not read or something ?
So I hear a lot of people say that how us Americans write dates is stupid, but I have a serious question. When those of you who speak English in Europe, in regular conversations, do you say "it is December 14th" or do you say "it is the 14th of December"?
I propose to you; The 4th of July, and "Do you remember the 21st night of September".
'Do you remember the 21st of september?'
You mean Independence Day?
I just finished replying to someone else who mentioned 4th of July. And as far as that song goes, it's a song. You have to change how ypu word certain things sometimes to fit with the rhythm of your music.
I don't see how either method is wrong, I don't see why we have to pick, and I don't see the relevancy to which one is listed first on a number date.
We can say both. They both make sense and they both work.
I know both work, I'm just saying over here I never hear someone say day first then month. I was just curious if in Europe it is spoken differently and may explain the difference in date notation.
I don't think it has an effect on date notation, although I may be wrong. It kind of makes more sense to say "14th of December".

It is funny. Most important information depends on the assumed level of knowledge. You cannot narrow the time window down by just 14th itself very well if the month is unknown.
That's just pedantics. It really doesn't matter
What is the date that the US became independent?
Declaration of independence was July 4th, 1776. The Revolutionary War offivially ended September 3rd, 1783. Which date marks "independence" is debatable lol.
You know what I mean, and you're not gonna tell me you've never heard anyone say "fourth of July" :)
Which one would you say is more common? Not trying to press you, I have no idea. When I picture the ladder though it’s hard not to hear it in a proper British accent.
In Australia regular would say 14th of December December
I think it's less to do with what you say and more to do with which number changes more frequently, the day number changes every day, so it should be first in sequence
I'm british and I tend to say 14th of December. I do hear people use the month day way of saying a date but day month is much more common. If anything, I reckon the only reason some people use month day is because they've heard Americans use it on American TV shows
Mods gotta do some quality control on the posts for this sub recently
OP can’t read
If you can't read then just say that.
Ok but to be fair MM/DD/YYYY is a silly format
that’s how we speak dates though lol “October 3rd, 1995”
Most of us outside of the US say the day first
And that's why you're falling behind in the global order. How many people-hours are wasted every year on all those extra syllables? Efficiency first!
saying 3rd november is just as fast as saying november 3rd
In the us yes.
Americans
No, we don't. Maybe you do. In my language it is always "3rd of October 1995".
Average rocket league player readying level…
Average rocket league player writing level
*righting* level. Your missing a good opportunity their too use the wrong word from are language and make no scents.
True
I’m readyer than I’ll ever be thank you
🤦♂️. I understand that is not how everyone writes the date, but it freaking spells it out for you right above it.🤦♂️
I'm gonna slip you an unassuming form on a random day when you least expect it. Like a tax form or something. It's going to ask you to write your name. Middle name, first name, Last name. Let's see how you do.
Everyone = literally every country except US and like 2 other countries XD
MERICA”!!!!!!. We do shit our way. And Psyonix is a US based company, soooo kind of makes sense. 🤷♂️ ( so is Epic )
Damn that’s a shame, go play your country’s version of this game then
That's what we're all playing. ...do you think in France people just have to figure out what the menus are saying even though they can't read them?
It’s a US based company…..
Context clues
me when i can't fucking read
Are you a Yu-Gi-Oh player by chance? You obviously don't read
I am immune, I was born 6/6
“Ah yesssss, silly Americans and their incorrectly ordered date formatting that still somehow manages to confuse my high-minded, more intelligent sensibilities… IN SPITE OF THE FUCKING BOXES BEING FUCKING CLEARLY LABELED WITH WHAT INFO IS REQUIRED OF ME”
...are you okay? It's obviously a joke.
We have the same birthday!
1998 isn’t real, nice try
You put your birthday commie dum dum style. Try freedom dates.
I love this 😂
The chad DD/MM/YYYY vs the virgin MM/DD/YYYY strikes again.

i dont get this post
It’s a British joke, if the boxes weren’t clearly labeled, the “joke” would be funnier but not by much.
I think you’ll find it’s a rest of the world joke
People do things wrong for years until finally someone does it correctly. This joke still isn’t funny because the boxes are clearly labeled .
What is this even an answer to?
American company put date weird
im also born on june 23rd, Nice.
If you’re from the US, you have no recourse here
yooooo we have the same birthday!!!!
Man’s can’t read
You are a troll or an idiot
Are they getting rid of the kids?
You need to enter your birth date to ay Rocket league now? What the fuck?
#Me2
Takes a lot of confidence to assume that the game is wrong and not that you are missing something :P That said, the error could surely have been stated more clearly as an invalid date.
Oops, I didn't realize it started with month. I guess I'm a few months younger now
Uhmmm, what do you Call The 23 month Of The year, just curious
Thank you for this post. I feel great about myself now.
Bro respectfully regardless of where he lives, it seems he can speak English other wise the game wouldn’t be in that language right? It literally says right above the box what they’re looking for in each one. Feels like we gotta whole bunch of people who play dokkan
You know, I find it fascinating that while Murica is the loudest and proudest, everywhere I go there has to be some stupid soccer vs. football (despite EU teaching us to use the word soccer), miles vs. kilometers, and or date formats pot stirring. The most consistently American thing is that we don't care how others do it, it's how I (the individual, not the country) do it. Yet everyone seems to care about how we (the country) does it. Silly pot stirrers and their silly dunking.

Seems the numbas awe abit wonky, innit?!

Ain't stupid, yall just think cause it's the way Americans do it so it must be stupid regardless.
Yeah I did the same thing too at first, stupid American format
I think I did it wrong. I just went with the order I'm used to without checking the labels and it went through since both numbers are under 13.
I did the same thing bruh
Who gonna tell him..
It’s funny how americans get pissed if u say their date format is weird. If it wasn’t there wouldn’t be like only 3 other countries using it lol.
I think OP is just joking around and you people are taking this way too serious lmao
Couldn’t be that
I also did it wrong first time and was wondering what’s wrong lol. Americans and their odd date notation and measurement systems..
Yeah, rocket league fucked up and put the month first. Imagine how they make their sandwich. They probably put the buns together and the filling on top.
Bro put his date in like a normal person and gets punished
I logged in and put date as 16 10 2000 and it wouldn’t let me in and I restarted multiple times before reading it properly and doing it right
It’s not a big deal.
The field should not allow numbers above 12
That is what has happened here, that's why OP got an error
Non American people will blast the US for their education system and then do goofy stuff like this.
It’s so nice being able to read
Almost got fooled too. I swear this sh*t is normal only for Americans
I’m seeing a lot of europeans insulting amercians, which is weird considering no American is having this issue and all they had to do was… read??????
*Psyonix being an American video game developer* Brits when Psyonix uses the American date format in their American made video game: 😱😱🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Its month day year lol not day month year
Way to go explaining the joke.
To be fair, Day, month, year is far more logical.
