Guest Tata Steely Dan Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 "Hmmmm, I dunno Chuck. I thought this was going to require a 11/16'' wrench but it feels more like 5/8'' to me." Fucking Americans and their silly insistence on measuring everything in inches. Inches are great if you only have to deal with horses, lumps of coal, planks of wood and lengths of string, but in the 21st Century, and most of the 20th as well, it is a deeply impractical unit of measure. Anything that involves you endlessly working through fractions like that is a bunch of bollocks. They should go Metric like the rest of the civilised world.

I like Imperial stuff better because it isn't that froggy SI shit. We built an empire on feet,, pounds and pints. They have used the metric system and have never won fucking anything. Although it might be because they invented faggotry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PANZER MURPHY Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Remember reading about the loss of an expensive space probe because the European space agency were using metric and the spams were still taking feet yards and hogsheads . .probe missed it's target by hundreds an thousands of furlongs Panzerknacker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We gave it away because we didn't like Johnny Foreigners getting in the way all the time. Technically, who are the most advanced nation on earth? Do they use the SI system? There is the proof that the metric system makes you thick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea, because 'advanced' is a subjective notion at the best of times and some random Northern cunt isn't going to be an authority on the matter either way.

Croissants. Split geese. Burned Joan. Microsoft. Untouchable twenty years ago. Bloated, complacent and despotic now. The Space Shuttle; impressive for its era but now relegated to museums and the occasional undiscovered shard of debris in a ditch or hedge somewhere in North America. iPhone; screwdrivered together in the third world by kids and promotes an anti-intellectual 'button click' culture whereby nobody has the curiosity to actually see how anything works. The F35 doesn't stand up as any sort of beacon of quality. Any cold-war era fighter could take it down. Late, over budget, over-engineered, driven by a top-heavy corporate structure bogging down the development every step of the way. A bit like the fabled, and vastly overrated, TSR-2 in that regard, only they had the decency to can that white elephant before it went into proper production. The Dassault Rafale is a terrific fastjet as is our/their Eurofighter Typhoon. You remind me of one of those whiners who quotes Camm's adage "All modern aircraft have four dimensions: span, length, height and politics. TSR2 simply got the first three right." at every opportunity because they believe that 1) it is the intelligent thing to say and 2) they fall for the convenient myth that our somehow brilliant, vibrant aviation industry was killed off by a single pen stroke. Meddling civil servants, Mountbatten and sitting around for ten years with our thumbs up our collective rears waiting for the F111s to arrive. The bleeding edge of British aircraft development. Anyway your list there (presumably a "laundry list", you Americunt brown-noser) is also, handily, a list of things you have contributed nothing towards. Go join your squaddie pals on ARRSE and have a circlejerk about the superiority of the F35 over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we got rid of those I would have to scrap my Doc Martens and CAT boots, and they cost a fortune now that they're made in Beijing by 11 year old orphans.

Guest nobgobbler Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 And the idiots use cups as a measure as well. But what size fucking cup am I supposed to use? an eye bath cup of which I have none? a tea cup of which I have 7 since some cunt broke one last week? a 36DD cup of which I have several in multiples of two?
