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?

    Cool.

    Also great way to miss the point. And great use of your calculator. The entire thing is that the metric system is not just “arbitrary amounts”, it’s all designed to fit together easily.

    Now, no calculator. How many feet is 0.683 miles?

    I know that 0.683 kilometers is 683 meters.
