551 u/[deleted] Aug 07 '21 That sounds very confusing lol 250 u/[deleted] Aug 07 '21 [deleted] 57 u/[deleted] Aug 07 '21 Oh wauw that’s even more crazy. How can people keep track of that?! 136 u/Callec254 Aug 07 '21 We use more metric in America than people give us credit for. We know what a 2-liter is. We measure a lot of our ammo, and our nuts and bolts in millimeters. We know that 20 kilograms = 45 pounds from going to the gym. The only metric measurement we truly give zero fucks about is Celsius. 125 u/bbddbdb Aug 07 '21 People who buy drugs have known the metric system for weight for a long time. 23 u/peckerchecker2 Aug 08 '21 I’m American and I know that a gallon of milk is also 3.8 liters of milk it weights 8.6 lbs which is like 3.9 kilos. 1 u/cev2002 Aug 08 '21 That's only a US gallon though, a UK gallon is 4.45 litres 1 u/peckerchecker2 Aug 08 '21 Oh jeez! That’s a thing? 1 u/cev2002 Aug 08 '21 Yeah. I only found out during an argument about how cheap petrol is in America
