What is your idea of perfect date?

Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
Dont know if it's true or not, but I always assumed it was because the numbers get bigger left to right. Only 12 months, 30ish days, thousands of years.
My guess is it’s because that’s the order in which we usually say dates in English: September twentieth, twenty-twenty-four.
