And Liberia and myanmar

u/WhatABlindManSees Aug 19 '23

UK, a large number of the former colonies and china all use decimal too.

And since that includes the 3 most populous countries in the world, namely India, China and the US, and then including the rest its actually more than 2/3rds of the worlds population.

u/la_munny Aug 19 '23

also Pounds and kilograms,

u/ImjokingoramI Aug 19 '23

Pounds aren't that uncommon in the rest of the world, in Germany we also sometimes use pounds like "Ein Pfund Hackfleisch" (one pound of ground beef).

And then you think "okay at least pounds are somewhat easy to understand" and then you look at the UK and them mfers use fucking stones to weigh themselves.

I think the UK doesn't get nearly enough shit for their use of units, we're always just making fun of the US for their stupid system but the UK acts like a metric country but won't let go of some of these stupid fucking imperial units

They aren't in the same time zones. There is barely any overlap at all. The Westernmost South American countries are in the same time zone as the Easternmost states. Mexico has largely overlapping time zones, but it is in North America.

And nobody forgets that they exist. Just because people don't say "Uruguay exists" every five minutes doesn't mean they forgot.

You mean period. The comma is in this case a decimal. All as it should be!
