    Thanks! I hate it.

    But in all honesty, this is almost like being inside a Canadian’s brain. I have to translate back and forth at work all the time, and even cooking involves converting things back and forth. I have no idea how many drams to a gallon, so I’ll convert ounces to mL, then scale as necessary, and then convert back to US customary because the measuring cups and spoons are labelled in American.

    I love the mental gymnastics which have gone into the making of this infographic. Gold!

    I actually like fahrenheit for weather. 0 is really fucking cold, 100 is really fucking hot.
