>tfw too intelligent to move decimal points

>>91465242
Because the spirit of American Entrepreneurship demands we count money quickly and efficiently, but we don't give a shit about that scientific stuff.

>>91465242
Now that you've brexited it's time for you to return to the Imperial system m8

English makes it obvious where your calcs went wrong. Metric you have no idea what step might have missed a zero.

>>91465242
Why do you care?

>>91465563

Anyone with 0.5 of a cranium knows we are sticking with the superior metric system.

Once MAGA happens I am sure you will get with the times.

>>91465242
Fuck off with your metric bullshit. If it were so great why isn't there a Metric Clock, shit head?

>>91465242
Humanity fucked up with base 10. We should have been using base 12. It's much better.

This really made me think

>>91469152
So only the children of rednecks can count with their extra digits?

How the hell is dividing something in four "metric"?

>>91465242
Imperial makes it easier to use fractions.

Metric is better suited for using decimals.

So using imperial for daily use and metric for scientific pursuits is optimal.

>fractions (parts)
Are americans really this stupid or os the image bait? I can't tell

>>91465242
our way is easier and more intuitive to eyeball, and we convert to metric when doing science which is better for exact shit.

>>91469650
No, because 10 is divisable by halves only.

12 can be divided by halves quarters and thirds.

>quarters
>metric
What?

Anyhow, I'm about to go for a 21,120' walk, so no need to explain.

There still arcades unless you live in assfuck Nebraska. They usually use prepaid cards or shit other than coins but still..

>>91468843
Liter is a fucking meme anyway. We should buy fuel by the kilogram.

There has been a push to go metric for decades.

The truth is baby boomers are now too old and stupid to switch. It's the same reason why America is still mostly monolingual.

Once the boomers die, things will vastly improve.

>>91476611
Nah, it really isn't.

>>91476611
no it's not

>>91476611
fucking idiot

>>91476184
Yes you can and there is a reason if some fields measure fuel by weight rather than by volume.

>>91476611
No it's not, fuel tends to be lighter, things such as oil are denser.

If you manage to elect Trump and stop the flood of trash from South America, if late millennials stop being shit and if gen Zers turn out not to be zombies.

Well that's an awful lot of ifs I guess.

Having worked both in UK and US as a carpenter I can unequivocally say that
>base 10<base 12

>>91476567
Maybe if you bongs actually managed to pick things up from them when you had the chance you'd still be the greatest goyim.

10 can be divided by 5, 2, 1.

Fuck you, cunt, the UK uses pints, inches, and miles.

I for one, haven't submitted to the KEK that is metric.

Stop making us look retarded, Anders!

Out of curiosity, how do you express Pi in imperial? Does anyone do that?
Also, reminder that base 12 should be the standard, not 10.

Americans are notoriously dumb

Also, water is wet and Muhammad is a pedo

More news at 11!

>>91465242

it's your system, bong

>>91467643
Because you can divide 12 with 2, 3, 4, and 6 and some ancient people thought that was pretty handy (which it is)

>>91465242
Are you using a proxy or are you just completely retarded? Or just a below average troll?

We have THE most fucked up system out there!

>our measurement is metric but our road/speeds/cars are imperial
>horses and stock are still measured in hands, sold by kilo and the price is in guineas
>you buy milk in a pint or in liters
>you buy petrol in metric but measure efficiency but imperial
>most markets have their produce in both measurement systems because people can't convert it


I'm too lazy to give any more examples, but our entire system is fucked, we use both imperial and metric and there is no sense as to why. Even drug dealers sell coke in grams and weed in ounces. Ask most people their height or weight and they will give it you in imperial.

What do you order at the bar? half a liter of beer? Where does the other 64ml come from?
