A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.

I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!

Only goofs & silliness. (:

Ameripoors will never understand the superior European metric months

[–] Stovetop@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (3 children)

While not "metric" per se, I would be very interested to see one of those calendars implemented in the modern day where all months are 30 days long and have 3 weeks of 10 days each, with the remaining 5 or 6 days occupying a holiday at the end of the year outside of the normal months.

The only part that might suck is how to define the work week. 6 days on/4 days off sounds reasonable enough to me, but I'd anticipate global industries everywhere trying to keep 2 days as the standard length for a weekend—now with more week.

i was joking earlier but there actually is a ""metric calender""

They also tried metric time but that's kind of dumb
