This only pertains to older posts though. Most recent posts show dates like "2 minutes ago", "3 hours ago", etc.

my problem with this option is you could in theory say the same thing....would it be dec 11th, or nov 12th?

The first choice, as it is always YMD and never YDM. Literally nobody uses YDM. Check the wikipedia link above for more information on different ways to write dates.

YMD starts with the largest time frame (Y) and ends at the smallest (D). This is handy: When you want to sort alphabetically, it automatically sorts chronologically too.
