Fancy tape measure????????????

[X-it]

Just like us to spend billions on metric thinking we are big shots, only to realize the big guys to the south are calling the shots. We are the only country in the world to have two systems still. Unless you have your head in the sand and don't have a clue what's going on in the real world.

Every science, engineering and medical based discipline is based on metric because scientists are stupid and can't math. MMKAY

And in the real world in Canada we still use standard, I had to use all three bases of measurement for a living my whole life. Nothing like measuring with a metric tape and try and make standard plywood work, or converting decimals of a inch to 1/8ths lots of needles tricks you have to learn to make 3 systems work.

like lets say you had to use this tape and you had to cut a chunk of lumber 1 foot 2 and 3/8 inches long. Could you convert that in your head using that tape? Well i can.

I'm truly impressed. You are probably waaaaaay ahead of the rest of us.

Would you agree that metric is the best, easiest for the average guy ?

If you had a choice for 1 metric of measure, what would it be ?

Metric is the easiest and best choice for the average guy with the least math involved for everything including volume. I am not impressed at all with the system we have.

Surprised how many people think simple fractions are hard!

We have had French metric for 50 years now and we are still in standard, a typical Trudeau move, cost a fortune to screw up the country.
