It's Tuesday, 2/22/22, the grandest of all taco Tuesdays. Do not squander this gift you have been given!

I'm in Sweden, and we write this 2022-02-22, i,e Year-Month-Day.
Not so fun in our notation then Sad

LOL ! Very good, it indeed sounds like a tune when one pronounces it correctly and rythmically.

In Spain, this date is "22-02-2022", which reads like "dos-dos-cero-dos-dos-cero-dos-dos", which is a number perfectly palindromic and even more, as my daughter noticed, it's also invertible: if you look at it upside down (a 180º turn), it remains the same !!

Furthermore, in Spain Tuesday is the 2nd day of the week, so you just need to wait until 02:20:22 and you'll have a most palindromic, invertible 2-0 timestamp ! :

I got a headache from standing upside down to read it. It still doesn't look the same to me:

sop-sop-oɹǝɔ-sop-sop-oɹǝɔ-sop-sop

Maybe if I lived in Australia it might look better. I've always wanted to visit Vienna!

Well, I said "which is a number perfectly palindromic", not "a sentence" ... Smile

And I've always wanted to visit Australia and New Zealand, but they're slightly far from my home. Sad

If you are a Dumb and Dumber fan, Vienna would be in Australia. :-)

I'm glad one person got my joke, anyway! I've been to Vienna, Saltzburg, and quite a few other cities in Europe. My Grandmother was born and raised in Darmstadt and she took me on a tour of Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the central Europe area. With the rough quality of the toilet paper in the cities we visited, I can see why bidets are so popular!
