Exactly! “30 Days has September…”

Joke is on you. April has 30 days so that’d be May 1 which makes even less sense.

You have explained why D-Day happened on that particular day. 6th June/June 6th was chosen to Avoid confusion. Had Eisenhower chosen 6/5/1944, the British would have landed at Normandy 6th May 1944. And that would have been most embarrassing.

There is no April 31. April has 30 days.

Oh bother.
If the Europeans tried to celebrate Pi Day on 31-4, they’d have a problem because it doesn’t exist, which I tried to make into a joke, but some here overthink the humor…..
We do it on 3-14 because we write our dates as MMDDYY, not DDMMYY….

How about a riddle: why can Europeans not celebrate Pi Day?

I have a binary clock set to 24H instead of 12H.

"I have a binary clock set to 24H instead of 12H." Your statement creates more questions than answers.
Clocks don't use zero, binary does. Is 1:00 zero or 1?
Do you count in base 2, base 8, base 12 (or60), or hex?
Can you read it upside down?
A curious mind needs to know
