Actual poster from 1917 that made me laugh. A lot.
Also, those motherfuckers are measuring the weight of those balls in kilograms, aren’t they?

That would be an argument…IF it would be consistently 16 between each unit
Il leave this one here to see if it’s 16 every time: https://youtu.be/r7x-RGfd0Yk
Spoiler: it’s not!
I’m not defending the imperial system. I’m saying the metric system is also stupid and we should have gone with something base12 instead of base10. There’s nothing special or magical about the number 10, our numerical system is only base10 because we have 10 fingers. That’s not much better than a foot being based on the size of the kings boot.
Hexadecimal or bust
16 is only divisible by 2, 4, and 8. Base12 wins again.
Base grahams number is superior
