imperial mogs in everyday use because it's shorter. metric units are a mouth full.

you always see these type of images being spread by arrogant eurocucks, and I'm from europe.

If this is the kind of stuff that makes your brain hurt, life is going to be really hard for you.

Won’t get any argument from me. The US should switch to metric and utilize joules instead of calories.

Stones are easy enough. 5 stone is 70lbs. Nice round numbers.

We use mostly metric in NZ. Thats what I grew up with and it makes enough sense to me. I always admired the old heads who learned on imperial and switched to metric as adults, and can still work in either. Imperial fractions boggle my mind. Decimal points for the win.

Our tradies/engineers still need to work in both as we have alot of machinery from America/ the UK which were made in imperial.
Damn

What system do they belong to? Better than KG or lbs. You still use lbs with stones: I'm 12 stone, 9 lbs.

Idk, but for weight I actually like to measure in pounds. Probably from watching UFC, 145, 155, 170 divisions etc

Food's actually measured in kilocalories.

Joules is the SI unit. Most European nations use joules since it’s the SI unit for energy.
