Of course the USA is going metric. We're just doing it inch by inch.

My bedroom is 57 sticks and 11 pebbles squared

It's a science channel so the metric system makes most sense imo

When I was visiting US, the whole "gallons" thing drove insane....it is completely absurd

Me: So how big is your house?
Americans: 6 football fields per gun in one farenheit

âBut, around half of our audience is American. So if we say somethin in centimeters or kilograms, it could trip up a lot of our viewers.â
Other half of your viewers: âAm I a joke to you?â

When you grow up with the metric system they are as relatable as imperial. A centimetre is my pinky width, a meter is head to arm length. Once kids are raised on it it becomes inherent.

1 km = 1000 meters
1 mile = 5280
How the hell is that more consistent?!?? đ

World: 1m=100cm.
USA: 1 foot=4 baby's feet.

Just use Km/h instead of burgers per freedom and you will almost be fine.

As an engineer, when people use the argument that the imperial system "makes more sense" because "a foot is about the length of your foot" and "an inch is roughly the length of your thumb" this makes me scream... Words like "about" and "roughly" have absolutely no business being used when measuring anything.

Even Nasa use Metric System for their missions...metric dominate the universe man.

Let's take a moment and be thankful that the USA doesn't use a different system for time.

âIf you have a body; you can use these measuresâ
Ah yes, because all human feet are the same length

I like when he said that HALF of his viewers are US - so they use imperial. So US half is more important that other HALF.

How in the hell is size of a foot or a thumb, is more relatable than a fixed amount?

World: What is your shoe's size?
American: one foot

When I'm 50, I'll have a house that's two bus stops long and three subway stations wide.

Son : Dad. It's so cold.
Imperial Dad : Let's go to the corner. I heard itâs 90 degrees
Metric Mom : No. It's gonna get us killed
Son : Am I adopted ?

What will it take for the US to finally make the switch?
