And this is why I continue to date foreigners
Because honestly most Americans are too stubborn, stupid, fat, and lazy for their own good.

I bet you think 30 degress C is darn chilly too.

I am in America. I use the SI system otherwise known as the Metric system because I don't care to screw around with Acres, Rods, Furlongs, Yards, cubits, fathoms, chains, ells, span, palm, nail, inch, finger, digit, rood, bovate, virgate, jill or gill, bushel, barrel, hogsheads or any other screwy named unit of measure. I don't like dividing by two or multiplying by eight and then carrying over the two and back again. When I choose to change one measure from another, I like moving the decimal place. It's kind of nice only having to do that.

Oh, how much longer until the United States is no longer a super power so that may be we can get over ourselves and begin to strive for greatness once again.
