I get that Europeans like it because they're faggots, but when an American says they want to switch to metric it seems like such a betrayal.

@alcade Metric doesn't have an equivalent to feet which makes it awkward to measure the height of people. Either you are hundreds of centimeters tall or 1 or two meters tall.

Imperial measurement names also just roll of the tongue better. "Don't move an inch" sounds better than "don't move a centimeter".

@xianc78 @alcade you can just say you are 1.68 meters tall or whatever
