non-americans come

which american unit of measurement confuses you the most or which one do you think is the dumbest

honestly anything that isn't in the metric scale. multiplying and dividing by ten is NOT that hard

Weight one

all american units are DUMB

every single one

Inches cause it says i only have 2

foot, like why is the measurement gotta be to so freaky

12 pm being midday and 12 pm being midnight has always confused me even though it makes sense (12 hours clock might be an english speaking thing instead of specifically american, i dont remember). Objectively dumbest is fahrenheit, healthy human body temperature as one point of reference makes sense and then the guy took the coldest day of this specific winter in his hometown as the other point. Properly demented

Miles

pound being the unit for mass and force

The existence of both ounces and fluid ounces boggles my mind
