I've been seeing this a few times.  Google says feet length in inches.  This is correct?

Well my feet are 12.3 and if they were twelve feet long I couldn't wear shoes

I have no clue what you're talking about.

Ever heard of meter system?

It's a system that works around numbers like 10, 100, 1000, etc. etc.


Complicated and hard to convert to, I know.

It's called the metric system, not the meter system.

apparently it's the same thing, though

I live in The United States but I prefer Le Système International d'Unités.

Metric seems like it'd be easier, but I'm way too used to Imperial (obviously) to bother learning Metric.

That's why we have common sense!

I only know a little about the measurements in Imperial, So I guess I could easily learn Metric.
