When I say a date out loud, I sure don't say "fourteen July twenty twelve," either.

And just for good measure, same "scientifically logical" vs "day-to-day useful" applies to distance measurement as well. Centimeter to meter is a huge jump. And I sure don't see anyone actually using decimeters.

1 dm^3 is 1 Liter, pretty damn usefull.

[Boozeroony]

1 dm^3 is 1 Liter, pretty damn usefull.

1 dm^3 water = almost 1 kg

[LeleSocho]

1 dm^3 water = almost 1 kg

It's exactly 1 kg when the water is at 4°C

Metric System: it just all works

[Gui_PT]

Yeah but it's Fahrenheit that matters!!!

Everyone just shut the fuck up.

[LeleSocho]

Celsius is based from Kelvin which is used in the SI i think that matters the most :D

Yup.

[Karl2177]

fucking fahrenheit I needed several minutes to realize what is actualy meant with "61F" really? get a grip, USA, and change to the better side

Although I'm a bit late to this, Fahrenheit is based off of alcohol(according to my physics instructor), not water. Those just happen to be the points at which water freezes and boils.

Did this, but the little guy was riding a skateboard shredding the shit out of everything.

That means the guy was drunk when he came with that unit. That makes sense now.

[Jobiensis]

Stop with the measurement system bickering.

One of the original fixed points in the Farenheit scale is the temperature of the armpit of a healthy man. Which is just ludicrous.

Nowadays, they just fix that point relative to the celsius scale, so they should just use that (celsius) scale IMO.

BUT HEY LOL WORLD GROUPTHINK

This made me laugh.

[dave is ok]

Fahrenheit rules. Our temperatures vary from -20 to 100+.

I like fahrenheit because (other than being american) anything below 0 means it's really fucking cold, and anything above 100 means it's really fucking hot.

I also prefer to speak the dates the american way (May 1st) because you transmit the information with the least amount of data, if that makes sense. Though YYYY/MM/DD is the best for archiving.

When I say a date out loud, I sure don't say "fourteen July twenty twelve," either. "July fourteenth, twenty twelve." So MM/DD/YYYY matches actual spoken dates, as well. I'll admit to ignorance regarding whether the non-US English-speaking world actually DOES say "fourteen July twenty twelve," though. Sounds pretty silly if you ask me!

Yes, 14 July 2012...did you mean fourth of july? lolol

I've tried using this in these types of arguments before. Only those from colder climates seem to agree. Warm-climate people think anything below ~30 is cold, so that should be "0". Oh well.

I'll try to contribute:

Apparently, we are both terrible people.

Come on guyyyyysss obviously I thought of fourth of July, I just didn't mention it because it hurts my argument. We've all been there!
