Identical sentiment
Or FL
Or TX
Or CA
Or anywhere they've attacked us here
True, San Bernardino
also, I don't think it's a naming thing
if I remember correctly, the Parliamentary System is a specific system
So, "parliament" vs "congress" isn't just a matter of semantics, it's an actual different system
"different system", you mean, like the metric system? btfo borther
tbh metric is better
literally no reason to use these esoteric measurements based on what was convenient to some farmer 10 centuries ago
Read it out of context
The only thing I refer to in metric is meters
>thanks J's
I looked up how big my apartment is, converted it to metric, and promptly forgot what the original number was because metric is more useful
it's 34 square meters btw
my dorm was 15
I think we would switch if it weren't so set in stone. Could you imagine the cluster of trying to convert all building plans and tools to metric? What a nightmare
Height in centimeters is just bizarre though
I mean
it's not like other countries haven't done it
and ya that's pretty weird, but meters exist and we can use those
What countries have done it? Was it recent?
(recent as in with modern technology and architecture)
Big if true
well... really every country has done it except the US, Myanmar, and some irrelevant ones
I think Canada was fairly recent
Parliament Funkadelic
VS
Congress Funkadelic
I dunno guys...
>Imagine not measuring things in Rods (length of a standard canoe ~16.5 ft)
You know, insisting all nations use the same measurement "to be more efficient" is not very different than the argument for one global language, currency, legal system, and government. All of those things "increase efficiency" and "ease of trade."
Resist globalism. Reject metric.
That's not really an argument against the metric system
