It's not about right and wrong units.

US-used international foot is currently defined via meter, so you do acknowledge meter that way. It's just the hassle involved in changing systems that you haven't so far bothered to go through with. Physics also uses metric system and the US also acknowledges that.

Also, I don't see how you bailed their (Norwegians) asses in WW2. It was the British who helped liberate Norway from Nazi troops.

Inches to a foot, feet to a yard.

Excellent post. Glad you're back and contributing. n/t

How many hours ago this post was written? Lol, but seriously. (n/t)

Engurd February 03, 2012 10:16AM

American hours or European metric hours? NT

Batman February 03, 2012 10:17AM

Straight number in the base-ten system would be the best. But binary would do either. (n/t)

None of that stopped us from saving your ass in Dubbya Dubbya Two.

No idea what you're talking about here, but the absence of the mixer taps in english bathrooms beats it all. (n/t)

Engurd February 03, 2012 02:45PM

I understand each of those words.. but I have no idea what they mean in that order. nt

Java February 03, 2012 03:28PM

He always carries a mix-tape with him to listen to while shitting. English bathrooms don't have cassette players in them. (n/t)

wrathpuppet February 03, 2012 03:36PM

Allright, how you calling a faucet mixers in America? Or just playing a sanctimonious person out of despondency? (n/t)

Engurd February 03, 2012 04:04PM

I'm giving Java a hard time, your post was clear. (n/t)

They are just jealous of your superior intellect. Pay no heed to their blasphemous words. (n/t)

Matrik February 03, 2012 04:05PM

Someone said it here before. Stop spoiling my posts with your "likes". Well, smth like that... (n/t)

The British couldn't have done that, if we didn't save their asses, could they?

Java February 03, 2012 03:35AM

I dont belive he would have won, with or without US interference.

Cerunnir(VIP) February 03, 2012 04:49AM

Depends on how you define winning.

I don't think they would have.

istirith February 05, 2012 12:25AM

It keeps the stupid people from measuring things. In America, if you don't know there's 16 fluid ounces to a pint, you can GTFO. nt

Someone Not Special, Esquire February 02, 2012 09:20PM

Its not a terribly difficult system to learn~

enyuu February 02, 2012 01:51PM

I agree with this and I'm american.

vortexmagus February 02, 2012 12:31PM

I have a feeling someone, somewhere, a long time ago..

Cerunnir(VIP) February 02, 2012 12:35PM

I heard that the King of England or something created them.

Kez February 02, 2012 02:52PM

I know that the foot measurement was actually based off of Charlemagne's foot. (n/t)

legobelt February 02, 2012 03:09PM

Mostly incorrect. Don't you people google anything?

Matrik February 02, 2012 03:42PM

No. He's American. The guy on the left though, Hugh Laurie, is, and boy is he Euro-homo.NT
