Fuck yeah. Because 100 being the temperature of a random woman measured during her menstrual cycle totally makes sense.
Ey! It was the blood temperature of a horse before that, okay?! So it’s not as if there were no improvements made at all! /s
I actually like fahrenheit for weather. 0 is really fucking cold, 100 is really fucking hot.
Plus Fahrenheit gives you more increments of degrees within a given range.
Ever heard of decimals?
I love the mental gymnastics which have gone into the making of this infographic. Gold!
If the date format is not YYYY-MM-DD it can fuck right off.
My favorite thing about this date format is using it in file names. Sorting the files by name also sorts them by date.

Thi is the way.
I like that every bar has a different scaling.
Don’t Americans normally say “4th of July”?
“The 4th of May be with you”
I actually agree that the metric system has nice round numbers, but this graphic is a hilarious rebuttal to the first one that just draws pictures to make their preferred system look like it fits into the pretty pictures.
Two can play at that game, lol.
Eh… The graph shows
“Inches in 8.33 feet”, and those 3’s will go on forever like 8.333333333333…
Its clearly meant to be a shitpost.
Thanks! I hate it.
But in all honesty, this is almost like being inside a Canadian’s brain. I have to translate back and forth at work all the time, and even cooking involves converting things back and forth. I have no idea how many drams to a gallon, so I’ll convert ounces to mL, then scale as necessary, and then convert back to US customary because the measuring cups and spoons are labelled in American.
Same, as a Canadian I wish we just had everything in metric instead of 70% of things. If systems of units were money, metric would be paying with dollars and cents, while imperial is paying with sheep and bars of gold.
I also hate that we are loosey goosey with date formats. What day is 07/08/23??? I hate that the US uses MM/DD/YY format but at least they are consistent about it.
That’s either July 8, or August 7th. Depending on… Well. What whoever was writing it meant 😁
Now this is the kind of shitposting I can get behind.
