How dare you bring a metric prefix into this!

Why are Americans afraid of real units of measurement?

Wouldn't you rather they spend more time doing fractions instead of invading more countries?

I feel like there's enough room for both the metric system and not invading countries in this big ol' world.

Them's fighting words!

Well you know what, let's just agree to disagree.
