Hey! If you convince the rest of them to use the metric system, how will I get a private laugh out of telling people how far they are away from their destination using kilometers?! Don't screw this up for me!! ;)
I will always prefer the imperial system (even though metric is demonstrably better), it's what I grew up with. It's just that I saw a treadmill as a unit of measurement, an imaginary one at that, and just thought it was ridiculous.
