I think Europe should switch to the Imperial System!

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Use your head. The one on your shoulders. No really, just try. Please?

At this point it would ruin the already ailing manufacturing sector to switch everything over to metric. The costs involved would probably just push the last jobs overseas. The only real advantage comes to collaborative engineering projects where some dunces are still using imperial when working internationally.

Great minds discuss ideas

Average minds discuss events

Small minds discuss people

We should, but it's far too impractical for us to switch. It's ingrained in our daily lives; like ordering a quarter-pound hamburger, or "going the full nine yards".

Deal with it.

Every other country in the world uses it, and even our Army does. So, I don't understand why we haven't done it already.
