Hmmm...... and here we thought you were enumerated
Haha..
I’m actually good with math and several languages.
When I’m in a Spanish-speaking country I can get by with what I know, look it up, or find a translator.
But in my own country I shouldn’t have to bother.
Same with foreign units of measure. In my own country I shouldn’t have to do a conversion to figure out how fast something is going.
Then some people will argue that if I’m reading a foreign scientific journal translated to English, I should expect metric units of measure. My answer there is - if they are going to bother translating it, why didn’t they translate the units of measure?
Funny story. I was driving home from a trip and saw a patrol car just as I was passing through a 25mph zone. I slowed down and checked my speed - to my surprise, I was still going 40! I slowed down even more and was finally down to about 25 when the cop pulled up beside me and signaled for me to roll down my window.
I stopped, rolled it down and he said: “why so slow?”
As soon as he said that I realized what happened: my 2007 Honda Civic has a mph/kph switch right next to the trip counter and I must have accidentally toggled it.
No harm done this time - the cop laughed. But brainlessly accommodating foreign languages and units of measure is not just an annoyance - it is a mark of what pussies Americans have become - thanks to the Left.
