Temperature can definitely have an “are you over 60?” question with yes pointing to Fahrenheit (or maybe that’s just my mum)

As much as I dislike imperial, I’m still used to using Fahrenheit for body temperature. 99 mild fever, but you still have to go to school. 100 stay at home. 103+ you’re dying.

The vegan milk part is so specific but so true!

This needs updating, there’s a shift to weighing people in kilograms now. Thank god

LillyPip ,

I lost two stone last year. I wasn’t on a diet, I just threw them in the river behind my house.

Wanderer ,

Honestly think gym culture has been a big change in this. People want to know how much they can’ lift Vs their weight

Ours in Canada is only slightly simpler.

What vital bit of weights and measures do you leave out?

Parrtytime ,

In Canada speed is always kilometres. For distance we don’t really use miles for jogging but most know the conversion if they are avid runners the rest the same. For temperatures it’s Celsius but people in border towns may use Fahrenheit. For weight for people official documents will be kilograms but most people talk in pounds, no stones. For measuring it can be both metric or imperial ie cups. For liquids it always in metric so millilitres or litres but if you go to the pub you can order pints which people think of in ounces and depending on the pub could be 14-20oz.

I once started reading the Horus Heresy wiki page on a 2 hour train journey.

I was still reading it on the return journey that evening.
