You can't sort things by d/m/y!!!! It makes NO sense! I actually like metric, as should any intelligent person. If schools here spent a little more time on it here it might actually catch on. I refuse to add extra u's to words though!
 
COLOUR!!!!



Teacher used to get annoyed cause of that, not sure if it was ment to have a u or not just remember 1 was the american way and it was the wrong way

Your image is unreadable.
 
Also, your pyramid should be upside down. Let's approach this logically.

Let's say I have a program that writes log files. I want the date to be included in the file name. What date format to use? If I use a normal american date like 03-09-2013-file.log all the logs will be sorted together sequentially for each year. The only problem becomes when you start a new year then 03-09-2014-file.log will be before 03-10-2013-file.log. If I use your stupid date system, this is a problem when the month changes because every individual day will be listed sequentially and all the files will be jumbled together. However, using the agreed upon international standard established by the, oddly named, International Organization for Standardization, we see that 2013-03-09-file.log will always come before any later log. This is why I always use ISO 8601, not to mention it eliminates confusion. If I were a raider still and said I would be absent 4-5, does that mean May 4 or Apr 5? I am american but posting in a place that primarily uses a different date style. You see how it can cause confusion? Also, get over yourself on the metric stuff. Not our fault the rest of the world is not smart enough to remember all the different values for different units and had to come up with an easier system
:TrollDad:
 
Metric seems more logical to me because its what I learnt. Imperial makes sense to you cause it's what u learnt... All I was sayin.
 
Dates and temp's aside

One cant and should not argue Imperial beats Metric as right there you have lost.

"Josh find me a 5/16 spanner"

Fuck you Imperial Fuck you
 
I dont get how the metric system had been around for so long and yet america thought "you know what the british imperial system wasnt all bad, lets make a fucked version of that"

-From the beard phone
 
I didn't say metric wasn't better, I said it was easier. Which is why it should be used. I was also making a jab at people who get confused by imperial, in jest. America was founded before the metric system was invented. We almost changed over in the 1960s? 70s? but it didn't take.
