Great

Kilometer = meter x 1000
meter = centimeter x 100
centimeter = millimeter x 10
etc ...
that's easier even to compute

What i hate the worst though is your farenheit temperature
gosh use celsius or kelvin xD
Think of Fahrenheit as a percent.

50 degrees is 50 percent. Not to hot, not to cold.

100 degrees is 100% hot. (Or 0% cold; no chilliness at all)

0 is 0% hot. (Or 100% cold; no heat at all)

Well -17.7778 celsius isn't really 0% ... At all
and 37°c isn't really 100% either
plus they aren't proportional so meh
 
100% cold isn't really the best description of 0° fahrenheit

it definitely is annoying that they aren't proportional. But the way Fahrenheit came to be just makes more sense as opposed to Celsius.

Well i grew with celcius
if i'm in a room i can tell with about 1 ° of error the current temp in celcius
i couldn't in farenheit

Again i think it don't really matter if you grew with one

what matter though is that you cannot do science with ferenheit without always converting

so it is more practical that your native units are the scientific ones ^^

I can do both, I use both pretty often

Water, most common substance on earth, essential for life, essential for almost all chemistry and not likely to be troubled by any cultural stuff or have to be redefined when some monarch pops their clogs. Take the pure stuff, measure at standard atmospheric pressure and divide the temperatures of its freezing and boiling into 100 parts and use that as a reference.

Far out there.

I think metric system is superior by far but it is still flawed
we should have universal scales
for example lenght should be multiple of light speed or plank size
Time should be the time for an atom of cesium to emit x particle or maybe the time light need to do the radius distance of a black hole of x KG (defined)
And mass should be a multiple of plank mass or a multiple of something else

anyway what i'm saying is that our units should be scaled on value that are universal and not arbritary
 
5'11" last I checked, I'd say about a week ago. Also underweight according to bmi index last I checked too. :P
