18 000 F might as well be a billion F as it means nothing to me, just like inch and feet. wtf is a yard if not a backyard???

A yard is 3 feet, or 36 inches, or 1/1,760th of a mile. Makes perfect sense to me.

a yard is a circumcised meter

Sadly yards are forever a part of the American mind because an American football field is 100 yards (300 feet) long. And progress in the game is measured in yards.

an american football field is 100 yards (100 meters) long
