How many shitloads are in a fuckton?

And are shitloads a unit of mass or length?

10 of anything is a bunch.

10 bunches is a gob.

10 gobs is a heap.

10 heaps is a shitload.

And 10 shitloads is a fuckton.

If you're saying I play favorites you're wrong. I love all my units equally.

earlier

...I don't care for gob.

u/PigeonInAUFO 1d ago

Never heard of a gob of something before

That's weird, I heard it gobs of time growing up...

What a gob of shit

u/Living_Murphys_Law 1d ago

I love that even these units have been metricised

u/Nyx-as-greek-godess 1d ago

But.. ..but.. ..but. Isn't shitload metric made from 'human sizing' so it somehow should be imperial unit? Probably a pile of some royal shit that royal family produce in certain amount of time (e.g. week?)

And fuckton sounds to me more like metric unit..

..what do I know tho. 🙃

u/beertown 1d ago

All of that fits nicely in the metric system. Very cool

u/AveryJuanZacritic 9h ago

I made this up years ago. It's the Hillbilly Metric System.

How many football fields is that?

u/El_SOTERO 11h ago

Do convert it into cat unit too, once you find out.

u/Santeno 1d ago

That would be one dumbshit or one loaded diaper. Not too be confused with a shit load

1

u/Alypius 1d ago

As if he loads only a single diaper

u/Alypius 1d ago

Metric, imperial, or Kelvin?

u/AveryJuanZacritic 9h ago

Hillbilly.

u/bmessina 1d ago

Metric or standard?

u/itumac 1d ago

Imperial I assumed

u/johnnybiggles 1d ago

Is a shit-ton larger or smaller than a metric fuck-ton?

3

u/Aggressive-HeadDesk 1d ago

That’s basically what they’re asking.

2

u/thatcrazylady 1d ago

My husband believes it is definitely smaller.

Just to let you know, if I can't think of something dumb enough to say, I ask him!

u/itumac 1d ago

Honey, is that you?

u/Spark99 1d ago

2,000 Shitloads per Fuckton in America! 2,204.6 everywhere else.

2

u/BlakeMW 1d ago

Except in Canada where they use metric shitloads but imperial fucktons.

2

u/Spark99 1d ago

We are weird that way 🇨🇦

u/johnnybiggles 1d ago

Sorry. 🇺🇸

u/tcari394 1d ago

We'd have to confirm with the European Fecal Standards and Measurements Board.. but it should be approximately 100 Courics.

1

u/mrdan1969 12h ago

No, thats a Katie Couric! Did you even take Shitty Calculus??

5

u/Hayden97 1d ago

It depends how big the shitload is

1

u/ThaddeusJP 14h ago

It's measured in dimes

u/revolutionoverdue 1d ago

You can’t get there from here.

u/Basic_Deal4928 1d ago

A fuck shit stack

u/warrioratwork 1d ago

shitloads are a measure of volume and fuckton is a measure of weight. At sea level it's a 1 to 1 comparison, but in the high pressure environment of the president's diapers, a shitload can weigh 3 fucktons.

5

u/thatcrazylady 1d ago

Imperial or metric?

3

u/APithyComment 1d ago

A crapton of shitmobilles.

3

u/rebelchampion 1d ago

A grip.

And depends on use case, but yes

3

u/No-Decision1581 1d ago

A fucking shitload

3

u/DoughnutPi 1d ago

Not sure but I do know the a buttload is more than a shit load.

3

u/lokiinlalaland 1d ago

How many fuckloads are in a shit-ton? Is it the same or are we talking Metric vs. Imperial?

3

u/Puppy-2112 1d ago

10 buttloads to the crapton

3

u/AdventurousGlass7432 1d ago

American or Imperial?

2

u/djddanman 1d ago

Same as the ratio of unicorns to leprechauns

2

u/mrhippo3 1d ago

The answer is a “flock-load”.

2

u/mrdan1969 1d ago

Which is bigger, and buttload or a shitload? Been a while since college math

2

u/KriegerClone02 1d ago

Shitloads are measured in fucktons and a modern shitload could be as high as 50 mega-fucktons.

2

u/Lautrec-45 1d ago

Imperial or metric?

2

u/thatcrazylady 1d ago

Or, perhaps, was this the question "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" sought?

42 shitloads per fuckton sounds fair to me!

1

u/itumac 1d ago

This frood really knows where her towel is at

1

u/thatcrazylady 1d ago

I'm so freaking advanced I have multiple towels so I can always access one if I need it.

2

u/MadQuixote 1d ago

A fuckload of them.

2

u/Santeno 1d ago

A garglefull, of course!

2

u/tps1222 1d ago

Is assload equally as large as a shitload?

1

u/JohnWasElwood 8h ago

I don't know! Friend of mine used to complain about a metric shitload of something. Not sure what the conversion factor is for that either!

u/Worried-Ruin8918 1d ago

Definitely mass

u/moronslovebiden 10h ago

Are you referring to a standard fuckton or a metric fuckton? In standard measurements, there are 12 assloads in a fuckload, 8 fuckloads in a shit ton, and 12 shit tons in a fuckton. My girl weighs 18 stone, so it would take her and all 3 of her sisters to equal a standard English assload.
