Why can't Americans just be normal and use the metric system rather than some shit like 5'11 120 lbs? What the heck is that

[–] PatFussy@lemm.ee 39 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Sorry thats 1.8E9nm tall and 8.5 stone. Hope thats easier for you to understand

[–] Sekoia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 47 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The stone isn't since it's not metric but the height legitimately is since I can just drop the e9 and get a reasonable height.

Since, yknow, metric makes sense.

1.8 nm is kinda short

[–] frosch@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well, as the „n“ just stands for „E-9“ it really just says 1.8 m

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

And the comment I replied to said to drop the e9 ...

Not if the girlfriend is an ant

[–] Goun@lemmy.ml 9 points 10 months ago

I don't think you have ever measured an ant

[–] sneezycat@sopuli.xyz 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

1.8e9nm means 1.8*10^9nm, which is 1.8m.

It's funny, you try and be intentionally obtuse with the nano units, except doing it in metric doesn't work since "1.8" is still there.
