I like the UNSC unit of "meters" the best. Beats the crap out of the stupid, trite, American units of inches, feet, miles, etc.
Metric rules.
oh so your racist against the americans? hmmm? inches, feet and miles r awesomer than stupid euro metrics! evil metric system!
I'm not racist against myself, no, just the arbitrary and meaningless units of measure we Americans have tried to pass off on the rest of the world. Thank goodness Europe wasn't fooled and stuck to the metric system. Hopefully, we will one day adopt the metric system as well.
Racist is the wrong term. 'Countryist' would be a better one.
Actually, it was the English who came up with the system that the Americans use today, and the English called it the 'Imperial' system. The Americans adopted it, then the English abandoned it.
I'm hoping we go metric too, but I hope it doesn't take us till 2552 to do it.
