Kilogram, Kilometers, meters, centimeters, millimeters not lbs, miles, yards etc

[ye193x]

First I mentioned is more accurate, lol @ lbs yards and inches or whatever confusing and annoying

[StainlesSon]

i swear guys your metric systems make no ****ing sense(mine most of eu vs yours united states/kingdom)

like 1kg --- 1000grams
1pound --- 453grams (why??)

1km --- 1000 metres
1mile 1,609 metres (lol)

6 feet 0 inches -- 182cm
seems you just complicate ur life for no reason

OP should not be allowed anywhere near the internet if he thinks one unit is more accurate than another somehow.

Which one do you use for work OP? I use metric for prototyping and reverse engineering, but imperial for everywhere in my life. It's just easier and more intuitive.

i heard they use something called stone to measure weight in the uk. i dont think they use kg lmao. " that lad weighs 50 stone mate" heard tyson fury says something like that during his press conference against joshua.

Most if not all science and engineering in the US is done in metric. For things that don't require sub millimeter precision, imperial is faster and easier to use.

Saying you're 6' is way easier to understand than 182.8cm.

A stone is 14 pounds, so 200lbs would be 14 stone 2kg.

BRB, 16oz in 1lb

5280 feet in a mile

4 quarts in a gallon

16 tablespoons in a cup

Meanwhile, metric is based off of 1/10/100/1000.

Also, saying my dink is 18cm instead of 7 inches makes it sound bigger

I find the metric system easier to use for day to day stuff.

Like measuring something in the kitchen, just use grams, easier then all the decimal poisnt and such.

Then there is woodworking. Its stupid to try to figure out what half of 19 3/8 is or whatever. Unless its a whole number its a pain in the ass. So much easier just to use metric.

You know why they call it a Royal with Cheese op

Feet, Inches, Stones & Pounds is the best.
