6'2"

Dividing by 12 isn't that difficult

It is if you are in an American public schools. I did not learn how to divide until I was in 3rd grade.

I don't get why Americans and some other countries don't use metric system. Guys! x10, x100, x1000 or mm, m, cm, km is way easier than 🦢, ", ', mile, yard or whatever weapon you use to hurt yourself lol. I know scientists get that, but its easy for them to convert anyway. Imagine that 120 cent is 1$ haha

I'm familiar with both, but only use inch for screen size and for some specific pipes that are made in ". And yeah, the guy from the picture is 188 cm tall or 1,88 m. Don't think anyone use 10th of the mm for that and even if they did they would probably say 1879,6 mm

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.

That is one of the many many ways someone gets shot in American schools.
