I use imperial measurements when working on boats, mm for everything else. I've also learnt that whinging about stuff doesn't make it go away, but I'll feel better for having whinged about it.

Real people use cm. Mm are for engineers etc who want to look special. Bloody silly idea using thousands of titchy little things when a big one will do. Inches are dead handy actually . bigger than a cm , smaller than a foot, just right. A yard however is less so.
Normal people know that their welly is 1 foot long and across your hand to the end of your thumb is 6 inches. Different sized body? Freak!Posted 7 hours ago # -
Drug dealers manage to utilise both metric and imperial without issue.Weed is always in ounces eighth + quarter etc + 9 bars but coke+speed is in grams but sometimes then changes back to ounces when you buy larger amounts...or so I have heard.
