bought a piece of wood in Lowes. I needed it cut to 1510mm. Guy didn’t know what that was. So I said 4’11" & 29/64ths. He said he didn’t know what that was. So I said 4.954068ft. He didn’t know what that was so cut it at 5 feet and it was too big when I got it home.
American recipes be like “Preheat an oven to 17 1/4 klatpifarbs and broil half a bucket of gasket steak for nine and thrice eggtimers.”
Recipe: Add three ounces
Me: (gets out scale)
Recipe: No, the other ounces
Me: (searches online for how many grams in a fl.oz. of x ingredient.)
Today you should learn: US and UK ounces are different.

They haven’t been like that since at least the 1970’s.
