I don't think my local grocery stores employ a dedicated cart person.

It's simply inconsiderate.

I generally agree with Burt on things but this shopping cart thing has me extremely concerned.

So you want metric but also farenheit? The fuck is wrong with you?

Water boils at 100 and freezes at 0. Kinda makes sense, no?

Fully agree on the no daylight savings though - that shit can fuck right off.

Yeah I’d be down for Celsius. Boiling and freezing makes sense. I would just have a little adjustment period to not wear a coat when it’s 45°C

Have you ever considered becoming a nudist?

That's very strange. It's almost as if you can never be nude.

It’s bad enough that you want me to think of someone who is 6’3” instead as 1.9 but I’m willing to go there.

Asking me to associate it being really hot outside with the thermometer reading 35? Too far.

Celsius is dumb. How often does boiling water come up?

Fahrenheit is superior. more practical for everyday human experience.
100 degrees = really hot day
0 degrees = really cold day

We've gone through this before and this particular argument is very stupid

But fine, whatever, people prefer the system they grew up with. What doesn't make any sense to me is the MM/DD/YYYY thing. It should go from smallest unit (day) to largest. Cleaner that way

Month is more relevant to placing the time/space to me, but you're right, it's heavily influenced by what you're familiar with.
