I'm struggling to understand the joke, can you kindly explain? Is this an imperial vs metric thing?
The joke is that British people have so little going for them that they must resort to making inaccurate jokes about outdated stereotypes based on cultural generalizations.
That's not exclusive to the British, everyone does it.
Why are you bringing the British into this? What did they do to you?
They brought us the Imperial system.
