    Please explain to me why I should use metric when:

    • My car uses imperial
    • the weather channels use imperial
    • the news networks use imperial
    • My entire country, which takes up about half a continent, ALL JUST USES IMPERIAL

    ???

      The funny part is we switch to metric when it’s science

      The question isn’t why you should use it, but rather why all these things you’ve listed are still using it.

      We all know that transition isn’t easy, but being proud of using the inferior system is weird.

        My point is that if I give someone directions in meters they’re going to look at me like I have two heads, it’s literally like speaking two different languages.
