You're displaying the inches side of the measuring tape.

[–] RaphaelSchmitz@feddit.org 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's showing more centimeters than inches

[–] Berengaria_of_Navarre@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Only because cm are smaller

[–] RaphaelSchmitz@feddit.org 1 points 1 day ago

I don't need excuses

[–] ZkhqrD5o@lemmy.world 41 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Don't @ me, I just stole it. :(

[–] basxto@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 days ago

Don’t steal trash! Are you a raccoon?

I hope there was a bee involved in that picture.

[–] RaphaelSchmitz@feddit.org 2 points 1 day ago

Maybe Arbee's? Taco Beell? Starbeeucks?

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 days ago

Maybe, but probably McDonald's

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The American foot is 38% thicker than the British foot.

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 days ago

In Europe people wear Boss, Armani, Versace, etc. In the US they wear McDonald's, Burger King, KFC.

[–] mavu@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 3 days ago

I never had problems with feet, but i can't wait until the current foot-craze subsides.
It's like with everything these days. someone makes a mildly interesting/funny/sexy/whatever thing and for unfathomable reasons 12% of humanity or 96% of humans on the internet latch on to it and make it the core of their worldview/humour/identity until the next thing pops up.

STOP THE FEET

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 48 points 4 days ago (5 children)

this feels like thinly disguised foot fetishist posting.

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 43 points 4 days ago

~~thinly disguised~~ blatant

oh yeah. I think I see the new shitpost meta emerging. I'll be eagerly awaiting TherapyGary's 3 page scientific write up on foot-philia as a product of the war on drugs

[–] syaochan@feddit.it 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I support using Maderaka as length unit

Maybe the imperialists were on to something?

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 26 points 4 days ago (1 children)

So instead of "imperial" we start calling it "foot fetish". Got it.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

"Sexy" vs "Unsexy" measuring.

Americans, to the British: "I learned it by watching you, dad!"

[–] basxto@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 days ago

It probably worked because they had such a great empire and a kingdom wide standard. One of the biggest reasons why other countries got rid of these measurements was ambiguity and trade. At least every country had their own measurements, often differed by member states or even by city. (Although differences by city probably already were gone when metric came around)

Yoda would be into feet. He's so short and down there all the time, sniffin and making those strange happy satisfied noises. Just look at him.

Imagine if King Henry used his penis to measure things instead of his foot.

Raven is responsible for the imperial system?

[–] FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 6 points 4 days ago

She's responsible for at least seven inches of it, by my current count.

[–] Quilotoa@lemmy.ca 8 points 4 days ago (1 children)

How about Europe, Asia, South America, Africa, Austrilasia, and every country in North America except one?

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

So -

Rest of the world: Metric

USA: Imperial

?

[–] Quilotoa@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 days ago (2 children)

There are three countries that use the Imperial system: U.S.A., Liberia, and Myranmar.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Burma has been switching to metric though. It's not there yet, especially with the civil war, but it's on its way.

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You don't usually think of those other two having their shit together.

And you wonder why Quentin Tarantino is an American filmmaker…
