aren't you taught metric in school? do you hate it because it reminds you of school?

How are 0 and 100 on the Fahrenheit scale defined again? Freezing point and boiling point of the most life-critical substance on Earth? No, that would be too complicated!

lol no one actually "hates" metric, it's just shitposting

It's a retarded way to measure temperature. 0C is cold while 100C is instant death. Meanwhile 0F is just really cold and 100F is really hot.

Okay, and 40 steps between cold and really hot aren't enough for you to get dressed? And you're unaware of fractions for more accuracy?

0C is water freezes
100C is when water boils
It makes perfect sense to me.

good post

You're just making me want to use a measurement system where both 0 and 100 are instant death.

This is what learning the wrong units does to you

>really cold
>really hot
Scientific as fuck.

>instant death
why are americans such fucking pussies? That's just only kinda-hot in a sauna.

Kelvin and Celcius are exactly the same fucking scale just the starting point is shifted.

There was a movement in the 1970s America when metric was considered as the system I think, it was somewhat serious

FAKE NEWS

>100C
>That's just only kinda-hot in a sauna
love it how people larp as dragons online. you go to sauna at 60C in russia ffs

Only reason of why America still uses Imperial scale is cause to change it would be very expensive, they'd have to change road signs all over the country, change measurments in corporations and businesses, also people would have to adapt to something they are not used to.
But still, soon or later, they will change into the metric scale, same with kilos and Celsius

>Only the United States, Liberia, and Burma still primarily use English units -- the rest of the world is metric. And now the Moon will be metric too. NASA has decided to use metric units
the example is set

Still haven't seen an anglo that doesn't use imperial in daily life

>water freeze at 32f and boil at 212f
that alone is reason enough to never use it

>0°F is the freezing point of some brine solution that feels 'really cold'
>100°F is somewhere near the body temperature and feels 'really hot'

Baiting euro metricucks is too fucking easy.

Most people I know still use Fahrenheit. Leafs are fucked because the people clearly prefer imperial measures but our gov wants us to be metricucks

I fuking hate shartmericans, they disgust me

always got really confused when americans talked about miles, before I learned that our "miles" (which apparently is only used by Sweden and Norway) are not the same as their miles

Reminder that the """"""""""rational"""""""""" metric system was based on the """"""""""rational"""""""""" idea of measuring one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole, which they ended up getting wrong anyway.

The crafty American uses his extremities to make quick and accurate measurements that allow him to become the economic and cultural powerhouse of the world

The lazy Euro uses arbitrary stick length (the same thing his house is made of!!!!!!) To harbor weakness, laziness, and communist sentimenr

bold idea, suitable for bold men

Every country or even city had their own version of imperial, it's one of the main reasons the French came up with metric to end all that bullshit.

>he uses the english mile instead of the scandinavian mile
full on brainlet

>imperial
based
>metric
CRINGE

>using feet and inches to measure things like if we're in the fucking stone age or something

it was unironically a brit that first suggested an international decimal based measuring system

Oh, they didn't visit the North Pole, if that's what you're implying. They simply started at a point in France along the meridian and idiotically assumed you could transpose it onto the polar meridian, which in scientific terms is only slightly less embarrassing than believing the Earth is flat.

Non-americans are butthurt because they cant handle simple fractions

The meter is literally defined as 1/299792458 (one over the speed of light) the distance light travels (in vacuum) in one second.

Source? If that's true that would be pretty hilarious.

Our mile is equal to 10km
