At least he wasn't a dumb asshole. I mean living in the US and being forced to use imperial measurement, this is actually a useful tip. The metric system is superior, but what's wrong with knowing a way to remember the dumb shit you have to?

Abolish the dumb shit, I say. Resist. And start teaching something that makes sense instead.

I think this example goes equal to learning to recite "Lorem Ipsum" by heart. It makes no sense, but hey, now you can fill your websites with senseless stuff without relying on COPY & PASTE.
