if not then farenheit is marginally more convenient but it's not hard to realize that 40's hot as fuck anything with - is not

2017-03-10 21:34:38 UTC  

I mean, I learned both systems in homeschooling, but after the grade of like 9...it stopped coming up.

2017-03-10 21:34:39 UTC  

In the uk anything above 12 is a blessing

2017-03-10 21:34:39 UTC  

yeah

2017-03-10 21:34:50 UTC  

just like you have the already rather mandatory scale of 0-100 you can set a new scale of -10 to 40

2017-03-10 21:34:50 UTC  

in the netherlands aswell

2017-03-10 21:34:53 UTC  

And life has never demanded me to remember it or bushels or pecks, or even gallons.

2017-03-10 21:35:06 UTC  

C is better for water, F is better for air. That's one way to look at it.

2017-03-10 21:35:19 UTC  

i dont think its better for air

2017-03-10 21:35:35 UTC  

I suppose, but not much happens with air at temperatures we care about

2017-03-10 21:35:37 UTC  

Did you ask air?

2017-03-10 21:35:38 UTC  

because the range of air temperature doesnt really differ alot

2017-03-10 21:35:56 UTC  

I believe sciencemen use kelvin for stuff like oxygen liqueification

2017-03-10 21:36:02 UTC  

60 degree C range

2017-03-10 21:36:04 UTC  

In the uk schools they nvr taught us anything that didnt use the metric system in maths, science etc

2017-03-10 21:36:31 UTC  

ye

2017-03-10 21:36:42 UTC  

Do you think that's because they are closed-minded or because they're still a bit sore about losing the war?

2017-03-10 21:36:50 UTC  

Hmmmm

2017-03-10 21:36:57 UTC  

Good question

2017-03-10 21:37:02 UTC  

Both?

2017-03-10 21:37:04 UTC  

probably the fact that europe has a metric standard

2017-03-10 21:37:13 UTC  

A post modern answer, I like it.

2017-03-10 21:37:22 UTC  

Metric system is easier tbh

2017-03-10 21:37:30 UTC  

yeah certainly easier to learn

2017-03-10 21:37:50 UTC  

you multiply or divide by 10 ezpz

2017-03-10 21:37:50 UTC  

Maybe that's why they brexited. They wanted the Imperial system.

2017-03-10 21:37:58 UTC  

You weirdos weighing stuff in ounces

2017-03-10 21:38:04 UTC  

yeah and grains

2017-03-10 21:38:21 UTC  

grains, ounces, stones, pounds, tons

2017-03-10 21:38:25 UTC  

Maybe that's the problem. The metric system just doesn't sound sexy enough.

2017-03-10 21:38:44 UTC  

We should rename it like...the Magnificent System. Then I bet us Americans would get on board.

2017-03-10 21:38:55 UTC  

Watching americans getting confused with weighing stuff is funny though

2017-03-10 21:39:06 UTC  

i'm not comfortable using a system that works on the approximate weight of one barley grain though

2017-03-10 21:39:09 UTC  

i mean cmon people

2017-03-10 21:39:10 UTC  

its

2017-03-10 21:39:13 UTC  

>currentyear

2017-03-10 21:39:25 UTC  

Always about comfort.

2017-03-10 21:39:47 UTC  

You know if our parents could deal with it and the impending possibility of nuclear fallout, I think we can too.

2017-03-10 21:39:47 UTC  

Ah man in 2 yrs time I wont be european anymore

2017-03-10 21:40:03 UTC  

what do you mean

2017-03-10 21:40:09 UTC  

Will your heart go on?
