>12 inches = 1 foot
12 inches = 1 foot
using a dozen as a unit. makes sense to me.
so
They really do
>7 inches = 1 Polish dick
disgusting
>half an inch
>8/16
>1 mile = 5280 feet
useful for tools and construction to break things down into hexadecimal
>why should we use some Eurotrash metric system from the otherside of the planet?
>I like using the British Imperial system
I still don't know what a bushel of something is
Imperial is retarded but base 12 is a lot more logical than base 10 even just for division purposes
>but muh 10 fingers
Stop counting on your hands you fucking retards, alternatively count the joints in four fingers
i count in binary
Got any photographic proofs of that?
10mm is 1cm
10cm is 1dm
10dm is 1m
1000m is 1km

>alternatively count the joints in four fingers
They REALLY do
I measure distance by how long it takes to travel said distance.
What about fractional cm?
1 pica = 12 points
1 inch = 6 picas
1 foot = 12 inches
1 yard = 3 feet
1 mile = 1760 yards
1 link = 33/50 feet
1 rod = 25 links
1 chain = 4 rods
1 furlong = 10 chains
1 survey mile = 8 furlongs
1 league = 3 miles
>tfw you'll never see a Polish BWC
Shut the fuck up you inbred retard. I love my country but non-metric is shit. And you don’t realize this because you’ve never had to calculate anything worthwhile.
I started failing maths when fractions were introduced.
Imperial anything gives me an aneurysm.
for me it's the jefferson system
The real confusion comes from the fact that the units are base 12 but the language is still base 10 for the most part. Imagine if we had an additional 2 characters to represent 10 and 11, then it wouldn't seem so retarded.
Also pic related.
You realize that had nothing to do with the OP right
Never say never, brother
>You realize that had nothing to do with the OP right
>Fahrenheit
>base 12 is so awesome, it makes fractions super easy
>divides inches in 2^n
What's a third of an inch?
2 picas
I'm going to go out on a limb an say 1/3
WTF didn't know Americans are THIS retarded
It's actually a barleycorn you twat.
I actually asked a burger the definition of a gallon a few days ago and he replied with "4 quarters or 8 pints".
barley crack corn I don't care

Aaaaaaahhhh
There is nothing wrong with the US customary system.
