Man it’s been 2 days since I saw this and it fucking gets me every time. 🤣

Now every time I remember how tall I am, I also* remember this.

I just wish people would step up to a bigger scale when it’s needed or to a smaller scale for the same reason. I hate seeing big massive boats measured in thousands upon thousands of centimeters instead of just using meters or feet, and it’s annoying when people say their height in hundreds of millimeters.

Or when knife-blade thickness gets measured in hundredths of decimal inches or weird fractional measurements instead of just using millimeters since it’s a smaller unit.

I hear americans measure tire thread depth in 32ths of an inch?? I mean it’s nice that you’re using powers of two but huh?

I’ve gotten so sick of working with people in multiple timezones that I’ve just started using UTC for everything.

Fuck you for living in a different sliver of the planet. You aren’t gonna make me do all the math. I’m bringing you down with me.

Let’s see them tremble when daylight savings time ends.

idk if all my calendars around me have been implementing it wrong, but if not, UTC is also affected by daylight savings, making it the same time zone as GMT
