The EU only gave up their fight about that in 2008

2020-02-22 12:50:45 UTC  

And older people went out at night and changed signs which local councils had changed to metres back to yards in the dead of the night in the 90s

2020-02-22 12:51:15 UTC  

this isn't very convincing

2020-02-22 12:51:34 UTC  

i do a lot of woodwork and i measure everything in mm cos its mroe accurate than fractions of an inch

2020-02-22 12:51:53 UTC  

i keep having to convert for boomers who cant cut straight or at size

2020-02-22 12:52:03 UTC  

Maybe I'm a drinker and you're not, or something. Personally, I don't even consider modern pints to be proper pints. they're metric pints until we put the crown symbol back on the glass, rather than 'CE'

2020-02-22 12:52:18 UTC  

teh cut of a saw is measured in mm like 3 or 4, not 1/16 to 1/8 of an inch

2020-02-22 12:52:41 UTC  

If you get your stock from America, you can probably get them non-metric

2020-02-22 12:53:27 UTC  

are you talking pints or wood

2020-02-22 12:53:30 UTC  

cos i get both locally

2020-02-22 12:53:47 UTC  

Tools

2020-02-22 12:54:01 UTC  

lmao

2020-02-22 12:54:18 UTC  

the cut is bigger than the blade

2020-02-22 12:54:40 UTC  

you ever used a saw buddy

2020-02-22 12:55:02 UTC  

im gonna order an imperial hammer from murica

2020-02-22 12:55:06 UTC  

rather than a metric one

2020-02-22 12:55:07 UTC  

Not to any serious extent... but I'm sure the French didn't invent it

2020-02-22 12:55:26 UTC  

And I'm sure God doesn't make wood in Metric

2020-02-22 12:55:34 UTC  

no the trees do

2020-02-22 12:55:41 UTC  

because metric is a measurement

2020-02-22 12:56:52 UTC  

Wait, what... trees are in Metric now? I don't think so

2020-02-22 12:57:10 UTC  

so is food

2020-02-22 12:57:20 UTC  

tis all in grams and kilo-calories

2020-02-22 12:57:29 UTC  

I buy my food in lbs

2020-02-22 12:58:02 UTC  

whats that? like 500g?

2020-02-22 12:58:02 UTC  

Why do you think loads of things on the shelves are 454g? Because that's a lb

2020-02-22 12:58:18 UTC  

ive never noticed or thought about it

2020-02-22 12:58:27 UTC  

cos i dont eat food in 500g incrememnts

2020-02-22 12:58:36 UTC  

I do if it's haggis 😉

2020-02-22 12:59:05 UTC  

never had it

2020-02-22 12:59:08 UTC  

isnt it liver

2020-02-22 12:59:32 UTC  

Pluck; Heart + lungs, boiled in a sheep's stomach... finest food available to humanity

2020-02-22 13:01:02 UTC  

no gtfo with imperial, it needs phasing out

2020-02-22 13:01:20 UTC  

mostly boomers clinging to it

2020-02-22 13:01:45 UTC  

I'm 37 and I'll use it until I die

2020-02-22 13:05:20 UTC  

The phasing out of old/local measurements is on the globalist agenda

2020-02-22 13:06:06 UTC  

in metric, one millilitre of water occupies one cubic centimetre, weighs one gram and requires one calorie of energy to heat up by 1 degree centigrade, which is 1% of the difference between its freezing and boiling point

2020-02-22 13:06:55 UTC  

This is all very interesting for scientists -- but to the man on the street, the old ways made more sense

2020-02-22 13:07:05 UTC  

no

2020-02-22 13:07:07 UTC  

they make no sense

2020-02-22 13:07:10 UTC  

nothign can be direfctly related
