I'm looking for a filter that turns a datetime instance into 'x Days' or 'x years y months' format (as on SO). Suggestions? Am I overlooking something very obvious?

Django Template Engine provides filters which are used to transform the values of variables;es and tag arguments. We have already discussed major Django Template Tags. Tags can't modify value of a variable whereas filters can be used for incrementing value of a variable or modifying it to one's own need.
{% extends variable %} uses the value of variable . If the variable evaluates to a string, Django will use that string as the name of the parent template. If the variable evaluates to a Template object, Django will use that object as the parent template.
In Sendwithus you can use the pluralize filter to change the suffix of a word. Like Django's pluralize filter it returns a plural suffix if the first argument is an integer greater than 1 or a sequence with more than 1 item. If a plural suffix isn't specified pluralize defaults to 's'.
Have a look at the timesince template filter. It's builtin.
The following returns a humanized diff between now and comment_date (e.g. '8 hours'):
{{ comment_date|timesince }}
The following returns a humanized diff between question_date and comment_date:
{{ comment_date|timesince:question_date }}
