    If you regularly use metric in the US, you’re either an aerospace engineer or a drug dealer. lol

    Edit: Thank you everyone who ackshually’d my obvious joke. I’m aware metric is more widely used that that.

              Yea, but the dealers only go to 900kg, because of their commission.

      The fastest way to find out is to ask how many grams are in an ounce.

      28.8? Engineer

      28? Dealer
