    Of course. This is lemmy. I don’t need to care about which measuring unit you have a preference for in order to reply.

    I just find it interesting that tons of people on the internet complain about measuring units on a regular basis and any time I see it it’s always a European.

    Why are all you so sensitive? You have trouble with calculators or something?

    It’s a fascinating subject to me because it’s so fucking bizarre. It’s purely a euro thing.

      Personally I haven’t seen people being sensitive, but I’m sure some are, because people are weird. But it’s just a fact that the metric system is, as a system, superior. And it’s annoying having to convert to or from a lousy system just because a couple of countries refuse to leave it behind.

        Life is a complex beast. Nothings gonna change it. In the end the US is just a mixing pot of ideas and cultures. There’s always gonna be some shit you hate about it.
