Actual poster from 1917 that made me laugh. A lot.
Also, those motherfuckers are measuring the weight of those balls in kilograms, aren't they?
Fuck that, we should be measuring everything in Stone.
I'll take a seventh stone of chicken please.
And lengths in Royal cubits.
If we're gonna go weird we need to go all the way.
I believe in some countries in the world, the year goes first, then the month, then the day (2024/08/08 or 2024, August 8). Seems more logical to me than the literal inverse (08/08/2024 or 8 August 2024).
But yeah, the metric system reigns supreme.
Uncle Sam couldn't handle the success the metric system would bring. /s
Jesus this is dumb. And it worked?
My comparison is that the metric system is like color vision. It's like colors for traffic lights, but USC people insist it's fine memorizing which light is which location. In metric you just see the world in a way USC can't, but USC people insist they're just fine.
Doesn't the reason why the avg US citizen wants imperial units boil down to "sounds cooler"?
Kilometer vs Miles, the ~~former~~ latter sounds easier and cooler to work with
Centimeter vs inch, same.
How will they now call a two by four?
It's kind of the same for the pro gun arguments, it all boils down to "but guns are cool toys!"
Edit: fixed a duuuhhh
A 2x4 is actually 1.5" x 3.5" so you are not standing on solid ground with that one.
Americans choosing the system with tougher math requirements is suprising.
This is his punishment for war crimes.
Imperial US system is defined using the metric system...
