    That would actually be the entire rest of the world. Also the scientific part of the US, as everyone got the memo on that the metric system is just so much better.

    Sorry for poking at it but it’s tiresome that I continuously need to add conversions to weird units for Americans because if I don’t I get flushed with messages if I can please use “real units” or “freedom units”. Stop using a badly designed 300 year old system and join the rest of the world already. Even your scientists and engineers already do so, its just that the rest of your citizens don’t want to hop on for some reason.

    And hey, you’re free to criticize Europe if you want, there is more than enough legit criticism to be had. It’s just that Europe doesn’t have the level of issues that the US has and at least Europe isn’t screaming around that they’re the best. Europe generally knows that it’s flawed but it’s trying to get better. The US is rolling off a cliff whilst screaming they’re number one. Eh, okay then!
