When you ask a British guy how much he weighs but he starts counting the rocks on the floor.
British people are annoying more likely to reply in imperial units to this question.
Yes, but we use Stones to measure body weight.
Oh then I was being dense. I actually use kg because I'm of a generation that was only taught that and have no internal conception of stones :(
Ask a british person if they know about stones and they'll answer in kg/m³
Ok, but what's heavier, a kilogram of steel or a kilogram of feathers?
The feathers. They carry the weight of what you did to those birds.
My scale doesn't account for that. Where did you get yours?
My scale doesn't either but I can feel it when I pick them up.
...I'm not making Nonna's ragu over here. I need precision here.
Brill answer but see what Limmy has to say aboot it
African or European?
