I went to an axe throwing competition and didn't enjoy a single second of it.

When I was in college I went to some "Woodsmen's Team" meet where they threw axes and shit. I didn't have fun either. The people (both competitors and most spectators) were weird as hell.

Metric makes a lot more sense, but we're stubborn because we're used to imperial measures except for certain things like 2 liter bottles of soda. Doesn't England still use miles per hour for vehicle speeds though?
I happen to know for a fact that a large number of Canadians still use feet and inches for height, and pounds for weight.

Also then you get into British people using Stone for weight. Because fuck you, that's why.

Why does the only Taco Bell within a 2-hour radius of me close at 6 o'clock PM? It's fucking tragic.

They also don't sell the breakfast, which, I mean, the breakfast doesn't look very good, but as a TB connoisseur I really want to try it ;_;

If STOP signs read as "THWART!", more drivers would come to a complete stop.

I just did a price comparison of screwattack's top 20 games for the genesis and the snes. As of right now if you were to get all those games on the snes it would cost you 586.00 and for the genesis 316.00. 217.00 more for the snes games. That's some crazy ass shit. That being said keep your games lol. I said this a long time ago where even back then snes games were 60-70.00 new and sega's were only 40-50.00 new. Even now Nintendo still has the upper hand in our wallets lol

That stone thing is such a bitch. Seems like such an odd measurement. Not that the rest of the imperial system makes sense, but what is defined as a "stone" is a lot harder to figure than a foot. You might consider that rock a stone, while he might consider a different rock a stone....
