Pi Day is terrible because it’s an annual reminder that Americans use the MM/DD format. It’s uniquely an “international” American holiday. The date format is almost as worse as the choice to use Fahrenheit but not quite.

As much as I like to make fun of American lack of world, this one doesn't seem like a very exclusive club. What's your frame of reference? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_format_by_country …
Pi Day is officially recognised by the US Government. United States, Philippines, Micronesia, and Marshall Islands didn’t have quite the same ring to it.

I just through the full list of countries using it and they were either: 1. Colonized or influenced by the US 2. Only use it for English, obvious US influence 3. Are a US associated/unincorporated state Unique was the wrong word, but the US is the reason it's used today.

I was referring to countries using either YMD, MDY or use either of those format in certain cases which is a large portion of the world (including Sweden which has also started seeing an up-tick in celebrating Pi-day).
