@nobrainnopain@social.tchncs.de @kibcol1049@mstdn.social @tiggy@mastodonapp.uk @Fasgadh@mastodon.scot I know all of this (and have measuring little things to use), but it would be so much easier if we weren't stupid and switched to metric like the rest of the world. Even Britain and Canada switched eons ago, but no, we continue to choose stupid.
BTW media still informs the US public about sizes by measuring in school buses, giraffes, elephants, and football fields. Talk about dumbing down the already stupid.
