  I know right? it’s such an intuitive system with a convenient unit for every scale you might want to work with.

    Metric? True it’s nice to have the scales evenly spread

    I genuinely can‘t tell if you are being serious. Could you tell me at face value, I just want to know.

      I don’t know glitchdx from Adam, but I say with confidence that they were being sarcastic, and laying it on pretty thick.

      yeah, it sucks. There’s no actual case for imperial over metric. it’s just what I’ve spent years getting used to and I’m not changing now.
