Imperial is arbitrary, or are you telling me that the freezing point of a specific salt-concentrated brine is an accurate way to base temperature? The reason those values seem arbitrary is because imperial values are folk-developed values that were attempted to be standardised, leading to shit like 0.9144ths of a meter

Jews dominate in American academia where they use metric. They keep the goyim down by forcing them to use imperial. It all makes sense now.

Difference between you and me is that I understand both imperial and metric whereas you don't understand imperial and rely on retarded memes instead.
