Hi guys! galador again. From the far reaches of the Intarnat, I bring you the guy that brought you this. Come, children, and hear about his next “great” adventure…. er, post.
So, this isn’t some biased opinion, it actually makes sense. Here’s the thought. We, America, are right in measuring the weight of objects and people in pounds (lbs). Right now you’re thinking 1 of 3 things:
1) Stupid American who is waaaay to biased to have a valid opinion, and being American, wouldn’t have an intellegent opinion anyway.
2) Hell yeah! America RAWKS. I mean, pounds… pounds rock!
3) I really shouldn’t have eaten that third soft taco.
To people in category one, here’s my answer: Pounds make more sense than (kilo)grams because pounds are a measure of actual weight whereas the kilo(gram) is a measure of mass. Weight is gravity’s pull on that mass. It’s different, yo’.
Dudes in group two: *high five* Ewww, you could at least clean the burger grease from your hands… without licking them. *shudders*
And number tres: No, no you shouldn’t have.
