Joking aside, one of the worst things about America is the mixed usage of metric and imperial. It sucks having to convert everything all the time, particularly when you're working on something that uses both systems for one task and you have to make them play nice together.
The other worst thing about America is all the mass killings.
The UK is very similar with its mixed usage and no one seems to give them shit about it either for some reason!
Same with Canada, some people talk about height in cm and others with feet. It gets really confusing.
All the potheads in my class knew exactly how many grams are in an eighth of an ounce.

And the same Americans who rage against the idea of converting to metric are the same ones that name their 9mm pistol Sheila and drift off every night petting and cuddling it.
The only gun you should do that to is the kitchen gun
Scientific fields use metric all the time. It's just some folks that prefer it the old way even if it makes it harder this way.
What's fun is our liquor is ml/L but in Canada don't they refer the 750ml bottle as "26ers" (as in oz)?

I’ve been to Puerto Rico recently, and noticed a weird metric / US customary mix
For example, when driving on the highways you’d see the distance markings in km, but the cars often had mph on their speedometer, with km/h as small markings on the side
I'ma bout to bust out my seven twentieths of an inch pistol on your ass just doesn't have the same ring to it
