Sorry the world doesn't use surrender units
>feet
>inches
Don't use except for height (along with feet) because some people can't imagine my height in centimetres.
>miles
Use because the speed limits here are in miles per hour.
>pounds
Rarely use it. I only remember my weight in kg, I don't get asked about my weight as often as my height
>psi
the fuck, that's a bit random
>gallons
Rarely use this.
>fahrenheit
Never. Only yanks use Fahrensheit.

Nice bait. Using a convenient system does not make you stupid, you don't prove anything when you use a system that requires you to use your brain more thus spending more time instead of saving it. You must advocate using Chinese characters for English then.
Yes we use miles a lot and imperial units in general, such as inches, ounces, pounds and pints. I personally prefer metric but sometimes use imperial when necessary or convenient.
Get new material, fat.
Psi is pounds per square inch so it shouldn't count

Yesterday it was -86°F with a realfeel of -118°F at the south pole. Now what would that be in C° ? I bet it won't seem as cold

French were autistic enough to attempt metric time.

lmao I've never met anyone that knew their height in centimetres. People only use feet and inches
>Use because the speed limits here are in miles per hour
And that's it, is it? Does anyone use kilometres in any context? I've never heard of it
>Never. Only yanks use Fahrensheit
Plenty still use Fahrenheit, albeit a minority. Pounds, gallons, etc are still used by a reasonable number of people. Your viewpoint is probably influenced by official food standards policies regarding advertising in metric over imperial. Anyone who uses their hands at home uses imperial much more

The true chad list:
Celsius
Pounds
Miles
Millimeters
Feet
Inches
Liters
Anyone who disagrees with this is a cock sucking faggot.
People on here whine endlessly about globalisation, yet never fail to attack imperial measurements as 'backwards'. Like most things to come out of the proto-Communist fr*Nch r*Volution, the metric system has served a purpose yet simultaneously had the effect of supplanting an entire aspect of the world's myriad cultures. Englishmen, Frenchmen, Greeks and Indians once perceived the very fabric of reality differently, speaking of weight, height, width, length, area, etc in their own unique ways, where now they think in uniformity.

tram systems usually measure speed in km/h and os map squares are a square kilometre
not that much else though
Metric is for fags and if you use metric you are a fag and a loser. Thread over you can stop replying now.

Make up your fucking minds already.
metric is the definition of soy
We do, chic*nos dont
Anglos only switched to metric in the 70-80s. Boomers know both fully.
>>use retarded measuring units to be special instead
Don't be dumb. They're traditional units, everyone had similar units under similar names and many industries retain their traditional ones the world over because of their specificity. The reason why the U.S. is resistant to conversion is because their education is the least standardised. I imagine it would be hard to standardise even within one state and there are many states. Even if one school does it fully everything the students are exposed to will be in a traditional format so they will know and prefer to use it.
Same with dating systems outside of Europe. It's rather sad.
Measuring height in cm always seemed too specific to me
>People on here whine endlessly about globalisation, yet never fail to attack imperial measurements as 'backwards'.
People just want to feel superior. It's like how everyone shits on American healthcare and college fees, but then they also shit on anyone who wanted Bernie Sanders to be the US president.
you just posted my two favorite artist, why?
I see lots of people do it in metres too but it's little different. 1.8m, 180. Pools are in metres too so yea I think cm is improper. Maybe it's only done because when you measure your height you read it as cm.
>weight in stone
This is my favourite
Don't think Americans use this one.
It's a quite minor issue only insecure fools worry about. And also standardization is gay and one of the worst parts about living in today's world. There could be a hundred calendars and a hundred measuring systems, for all I care.
you measure your peepees in mm so they sound really big
*should measure
I use decimal units because it's just easier to understand the rest of the world that way. I'm a big military weapons buff so I got used to them pretty quickly. To me kph just makes more sense.
America is inching towards the metric system.
