Dru Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 imperial metric is every 100th post or every 4 imperial s Quote
glacier Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 Yeah, with respect to the English system, I think that Myanmar (Burma) is the only other country that consistently uses it. Gotta keep up with those Burmese, you know. Actually, Metric is the official measurement system in the U.S. It was adopted during the Carter administration. It's just that no one uses it. However - as others have mentioned, it would be a nightmare to convert consistently over - especially in land measurement - how to convert the entire township/range-section system over, and the accompanying property descriptions, for every square inch/hectare in the country? 'right...what's a cubit?' Quote

I hope it satisfied your transmembrane receptors No colloids; I'm talking nanometers, at most. The funky mm shiznit would be rude. I think that's called "Cremora". But the caffeine does offset withdrawl headache while stimulating micturation. Quote

Seriously though, I've witnessed high school kids pause at the entrance of a local coffee roaster and look down each direction of the street before coming in for a double shot of expresso. That's some funny shit. Quote

Chocolate and Mountain Dew are consumed in large quantities around here. The latest big news in town was a drug bust in which 8 college kids got popped with a couple pounds of grass, some fungus, and hash. Scandalous. And now where are the stoner kids gonna party? Quote

Since there are 55 moles of water in a liter, I guesstimated my consumption of a 6 oz cup. Quote

Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 "Cupette" sounds like a women's version of the popular athletic man-bits protector. Quote
iain Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 or one of those detachable pennis devices they use for taking a leak. Quote
