I wondered why the hotel guy looked at me funny when I asked if I could turn the thermostat down below 18c.

I thought celsius was the norm in Europe?☻Comment

Canada's been metric now for nearly 30 years - and this luddite still thinks in terms of fahrenheit and miles.
We still buy 4'x8' sheets of ply and drywall and two-by-fours at the lumber yard.

I'm fully bilingual when it comes to farenheit/imperial measure and metric/celcius scale. In Canada it's a must.
But no matter how long metric has been in place, my answer to the question "How tall are you?" is always going to be 6' 4". When asking about a vehicle's fuel efficiency it's always going to be "What kind of MILEAGE does she get?"

You're in Europe. We all use celcius.

When I say luddite - meaning I think in imperial terms...but yeah, like you I know my conversions.
Its just that I know to put a jacket on when its 40-50F ... but when its 12C I have to stop and do the math before deciding what to wear out the door.
Out in the garage I have a 5-gallon gas can for the lawn mower and snow blower. I haven't the foggiest clue (or really care) how many litres it holds.

Is that English gallons or US gallons
I hear ya, I'm the absolute opposite.
It's worse with fuel economy for a car... as you lot say "miles per gallon", you'd think the imperial would be "km per litre", well, no you got to add that extra bith of mathS in there and say "litres per 100km" for fuel economy
But come on, this Imperial measurement bullshit is nonsense - a cup of sugar.... what, a big cup or a small cup? A pound of beef - dudes, Shakespear is well dead!
There is no logic to imperial scales, get with metric!

I hate that I have to own metric and SAE toolsCarbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about thatComment

At the lumber yard in Sweden you always say two-by-fours etc same goes for nails you say 5 inch not 12,7cm

BTW, you can thank France for the metric system, which explains why the US still uses Imperial

Here's the one I love asking to imperial fanboys:
How much does 1 cubic foot of water weigh?
Watch them scramble for feet, inches, fluid ounces.. etc
Metric: 1m^3 of water? 1000kg.Comment

in aviation its even more fun..
since in USA it is mostly based on maritime navigation, knots are used, and a nautical mile is longer than a imperial mile (if you are in sweden 1 mile i think is 10km..)
small planes gallons/nautical miles used for "fuel consumption" but for larger planes lbs/miles used (mostly because the weight of fuel change depending temp and meteorological pressure).. can cause confusion at the pump and it has caused a few actual crashes...."Obscenity is whatever gives the Judge an erection." -- Author UnknownComment

That's only because our neighbours to the south keep you half thinking in the Imperial system.Comment

your cock sounds bigger in metric 8" = 20cm, 10" = 25cmComment

I'm a 63'er myself. It was when I hit junior high, about the 8th grade to be exact, when the metric system was brought in and we all had to learn it. At the time it sucked but later in my adult life I have come to appreciate it's straightforward simplicity.
Plus the added bonus of seeing the clueless blank stare when speaking in cm's and kg's to most of our elderly. :DPromote Wildmatch, ImLive, Sexier.com, and more!!
