Actual poster from 1917 that made me laugh. A lot.

Also, those motherfuckers are measuring the weight of those balls in kilograms, aren’t they?

    As an American who lives and travels on a sailboat, it’s sooooo much easier to just be normal and think in metric.

    Foreigners (who aren’t sailors) are always amazed when they meet an American that can speak metric.

    Why the US refuses to get in bed with the rest of the world is beyond me. Stupid AF I guess …
