      @dianea I first saw the post by @MarkHoltom about โ€œusing penguins instead of the metric system at nasaโ€ this morningโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜น it just keeps going ๐Ÿ˜น
      We are now: hotdogs per .. penguin (?) measure system ๐Ÿ˜น โ€ฆ and of course this selection of measurements presented to us today ๐Ÿ˜น
      (To understand the joke, I have heard, โ€œ hotdogs per bald eaglesโ€ before when talking about the american system๐Ÿ˜น)

          I think the US should develop a new length unit.

          This new length unit should be based on the length of the standard issue gun used in US military (M16A4).

                Just some advertising and naked capitalism crammed into a deadly weather warning.
                Money and merchandise, the reminders of why we all gathered here today.

                Fuck you, channel 8.

                      useful because this is:

                      the average american diet
                      the average american total bank savings
                      the thing they forget to change in that thing on the hallway ceiling in every american home that's always beeping. what is it?
                      the thing americans use to pay for everything then they need to declare bankruptcy because of it

                        @dianea I admit that I have on occasion taken a dollar bill out of my wallet to use as an impromptu ruler. I'm perfectly comfortable with metric, but we don't have metric money yet.
