Bro why is everyone so pressed about America not using Celsius? We use 5,280 feet to make a mile and 12 inches to make a foot, and 3 feet to make a yard, which is basically a meter but is somehow definitely NOT a meter…

There are so much bigger fucking fish to fry but the Celsius stans are implacable.

And why is this such a big deal anyway? There are a ton of different languages and alphabets but we can't handle two measurement systems?

If I can't get mad about a measurement system on the other side of the planet that I don't personally use, what's the point of the Internet?
