    Fun fact: you can convert from miles to kilometers using the Fibonacci sequence:

    1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 35

    • 5 miles = 8 kilometers
    • 21 miles = 35 kilometers
    • 10 miles (2 + 8) = 16 kilometers (3 + 13)

    So this means 1 mile = 1 kilometer.

    Fun Fact: you can choose not to use miles

    And after choosing not to use them, you might need to convert them to something else sometimes. You gonna tell me Europeans never travel to America as tourists? This is a fascinating and easy to remember method for them or anyone else.

    You came to the right thread for shitting on Americans, obviously, but you chose the wrong place for this condescending comment.

    I think there are states in the US where its easier to make a baby than a living wage.

    America: I bet the rest of the world is so thinking about me right now.

    The rest of the world: My brother in earth, I have my own shit going on.

    America is a really big and diverse place. Really it's both and neither depending on where you are

    Jokes on all of you, I know what a kilometer is because it's the maximum distance I would walk to trade a baby for 15 Big Macs.

    A kilometer is 4,971 furlongs, or 10,96 football fields.

    Football fields are a stupid measurement in more than one way, because you can not just measure the width or the length, but football fields can be of varying sizes too.

    It was a joke about we how Americans will use any measurement except the metric system. I'm sorry.

    Also this never fails to make me smile.

    "In metric, one milliliter of water occupies one cubic centimeter, weighs one gram, and requires one calorie of energy to heat up by one degree centigradeβ€”which is 1 percent of the difference between its freezing point and its boiling point. An amount of hydrogen weighing the same amount has exactly one mole of atoms in it. Whereas in the American system, the answer to β€˜How much energy does it take to boil a room-temperature gallon of water?’ is β€˜Go fuck yourself,’ because you can’t directly relate any of those quantities" -- Josh Bazell
