Message Subject Stephen Harper to phase out metric system
Poster Handle METRIC SUCKS
Post Content
Metric system is completely stupid and makes no sense.

Everyone says, "Oh, it makes more sense because it is all in base TEN".

Do you all think that over the thousands of years of civilization, NO ONE EVER NOTICED THEY HAVE TEN FINGERS AND ALL COUNTING IS IN BASE TEN?

Ask yourself why, then, has nothing ever been measured in a base ten system?

Why doesn't your watch have ten hours on it, one hundred minutes in an hour, one hundred minutes in a second? Huh? Think about it.

Why aren't there 100 degrees in a circle?

Everything has always been done in twelve, eight, or sixty. Why? BECAUSE IT IS MUCH EASIER TO WORK WITH.

Tell me quick, what is one third of a liter? An irrational number. What is one quarter? OOPS>
