Consider the following:
The only 3 countries on earth still backwards enough to still be using imperial measurement units is Myanmar, Liberia, and the USA.

I wonder if that is a large contributing factor to the general idiocy of ameritards encountered online?
Keep them stupid and they're easier to manipulate.

Why can't you metric you fucking retards?

Looks like a bunch of bitter chumps using computers on the Internet, whining in English about how Americans (a name referring to a single country out of thirty-five on two continents) are retarded.

You're doing all of that -- computers, Internet, English, and whining about someone being retarded -- because of the people of the USA.

Cry all you want about how stupid and arrogant we are, but it doesn't change the reality that we have more influence over who you are than anyone else on the planet.

We're the milestone.

And we'll continue to be the milestone because we're where smart and ambitious people go to try to make a better life or to make things happen.

Happy birthday, USA.

Dr. Fahrenheit had an unmarked mercury filled glass thermometer made. He then took several identical containers and filled them with equal amounts of distilled water. one was left pure, and one was saturated with sodium chloride. exactly half that amount of salt was dissolved in a third, and half that amount in a fourth etc.

He then put the hundred percent solution of salt in a freezer with the unmarked tube in it and watched for the first sign of ice crystals. When they formed he marked the tube with a special file and called that zero degrees F. Then repeated with the 0% solution and did the same, but did not assign a number at that time. He repeated this with a 50% solution and then measured the distance between the marks and found that the 50% mark was exactly between the 0Fdegree and the second mark he made. Since this is what he wanted he continued until he ran out of room for marks. At that point he stopped and counted from 0F up to the second mark he made which was 32F.

the Paris Accords is an International non-binding agreement made by each country to itself the agreement you supposed to work in a manner that works to reduce humanities effects on the environment by attempting to reduce climate change each nation sets their own list of goals after those goals have been set that nation will try to accomplish their goals after a year or so the Paris Accord will reconvene nations will see if they met their goals or if they were unable to meet their goals nations will also compare data and see how they can better manage to reach their goals if they have reach their goals they will set Higher Goals if they did not reach their goals they will set lower goals Paul there is no downside to the Paris Accord

False - that is a map of countries who have not officially fully adopted metric.
Almost every country in the world still uses imperial measurements in some form or another - like acres, or cooking measurements like teaspoon or cup.
Furthermore, kilogram is not set in stone yet - it was an arbitrary measurement that is still being debated, whereas a pound is set.
