Metric VS Empirial

[Mutant]

An idea for your next thread: Driving on the right side vs driving on the left side of the road...

Celsius versus Fahrenheit?

You are one bored fella, I'll say that.

People sing about distance too. Atleast some do in the pop genre.

Edit: or did i get something wrong?

Metric would really change the flow of the Who's "I Can See for Miles" as the lyrics "I can see for kilometers and kilometers and kilometers and kilometers and kilometers - Oh yeah" just doesn't roll off the tongue quite as easily.

Don't forget this one "I would walk 500 miles..."

still metric FTW!

Here in Ontario, we're on Metric, but it still hasn't completely caught on. Gas is in Liters, distance is metric, but if you start talking temperature on a warm day in metric, nobody knows what the fuck you mean.

 

[Glenn Fricker]

Offically, yes. Socially, no.

 

[amarshism]

metric makes way more sense

 

[JeffTD]

I like temperatures for weather in Fahrenheit because I'm used to it and have convinced myself that it's more accurate since it's on a little bit of a finer scale but realistically metric makes the most sense.

I measure my weed and coffee in grams, if that counts?
