Metric or Imperial?

[Stigmata]

Which is the better system of measurement?

 

[Solaris]

It has to be metric.

10 millimeter's in a center meter
100 center meters in a meter
1000meters in a kilometer.

Metric is by far the best for EVERYTHING

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Any system that isn't Communist.

 

[AKIRA]

metric obviously

 

[Cormeh]

I work in construction (U.K), so metric is pretty much the only one I understand.

 

[Cole]

I think everyone can agree metric is better.

I mean I can barely convert units. I know my lengths. Pounds in a Ton and Quarts in a gallon. Thats it. I know the metric system much much better cuz it's so much easier.

Imperial system sucks so much. I mean I'm around it daily cuz I live in the states and I can barely use it except for lengths.

 

[Stigmata]

I'm just wondering if anyone is seriously going to pick Imperial

 

[SimonomiS]

Metric.

Seems no-one's heard of them, they're a band: http://www.ilovemetric.com/

 

[Que-Ever]

8 inches, baby.

 

[Qonfused]

Metric is better.

 

[Que-Ever]

20 centimetres?

 

[AKIRA]

i don't get that picture..

 

[MiccyNarc]

i don't get that picture..

Me neither. Voted metric. Imperial sucks.

 

[Seppo]

Metric of course. What's the point of imperial? It's only used in the US anyway, while the rest of the world have metric

 

[Baal]

Wow...I never expected such a landslide.

Well done, HL2.netters :thumbs:

 

[DreamThrall]

(lord, it's hard to be happy when you're not) using the metric system

12 inches per foot two pints per quart
why don't we make it easy?
The English system of measurement must relate to history.
We can use units of 10 and convert with ease like all the other countries.
I am in command yes I am taking a stand from this disease we must be free.
good god!

You're drunk with your tradition that has no validity
well I'm intoxicated with sports in metrics
come drink a deciliter with me
we want metrics
we want it now
we know we can win
I weigh 170 pounds that's 90 kilograms
see metrics can even make you thin

all cool things are in metrics for example here's just one
I've got my 9 well that's 9 millimeters, sounds cooler than my point two seventy inches gun.
The president will not exist and they will call me communist and call me scum
but its worth it Canadians will think we are smart or at least they will think we are not as dumb.

the revolution is here we must overcome at last
as we symbolically stick their ****ing foot up their ****ing ass guitar!

guess what the blue areas represent (countries still not using metric):

 

[Ravioli]

Metric is your friend

 

[Pauly]

Im American and I still vote for Metric =p. Imperialistic is sooo bad even though I'm familiar with it; the conversions just suck.

 

[theotherguy]

Metric. Imperial is outdated and pointless. I use it daily only because it's been drilled into me as a child. For anything useful though I use metric (like in science and math, it is much much MUCH easier to use metric). The only imperial measurements I use on a daily basis are MPH (all the signs are in it) Gallons (because thats what gas is measured in) and degrees Farenheit (because it feels familiar).

Same here.

I've heard of Metric. They are awesome. First thing I thought of when I read the title. Combat Baby FTW!


As an American, I chose metric.

 

[Stigmata]

Emily Haines is a fox.

I mean, I use metric.

 

[Vegeta897]

[Que-Ever]

I pwn, so, so hard.

[Seppo]

[Vegeta897]

I pwn, so, so hard.

You penis.

 

[Qonfused]

Gtfo Que.

 

[Que-Ever]

Aww, come on. I need a smiley that shakes its ass and holds a sign that says "I don't really like imperial" on it, or something.

I couldn't have found a better pic to make that with.

 

[Naudian]

I'm more familiar with imperial when it comes to visualizing lengths and stuff...

Metric is better though

 

[JNightshade]

Absolutely metric. Imperial makes no sense whatsoever.

 

[Cole]

I could make a better system than the imperial system, drunk and barely able to stand.

 

[Sebastian]

Rofl, I think we have a winner.

 

[tehsolace]

Any system of which has a (useful) beginning unit that starts as large as the diameter of a quarter is going to suck. How the freak can I figure out how big 0.21 inches is??

 

[Vigilante]

Metric. The USA REALLY needs to convert to it.
