How about March Fourteenth as “American PI-Day” an 22.07. as “international, sensible and widely understood PI-Day”, each according to the used date format?

Imagine acting superior about a date format.

No need for acting when the (non-US) date format is superior

DD-MM-YYYY is better, but still causes issues. ISO 8601 though, now that’s a superior format.

Also the date format used organically in East Asia because of the cultural habit of writing big to small.
English tends small to big, so I don’t know where yanks got their date format from.

A third excuse for pi, you say? I think it suits it.
