Woah there buddy, get out of here with your woke agenda. Best America can do is 1/5th, take it or leave it.
Wow. We'd be lucky if that were true today. With slavery, it's 3/5, but with things gerrymandered correctly, it's essentially 0/5.
Someone measure the pixels, if this isn't to scale imma be upset
Is too jpeg to do that. And they knew that.
WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOMETER
Americans might know it as the more accurate "tunsend of corn kernels". Or similar to a "heft of wayfarer", or a "diggerty of pebbly straw silk".
I don't know, but I do know what a kilometre is!
As of January 1^st^ 2023:
- 3 280.84 feet
- 1 093.61 yards
- 198.84 rods
- 49.71 chains
- 4.97 furlongs
Take your pick.
Edit: Whoops, forgot to provide my source for the date aspect: NIST Handbook 44 2024, Appendix C: General Tables of Units of Measurement, page C-5, footnote 3 (Warning: PDF) – Sorry about that!
But how many hamburgers is a kilometer
Well, let's say the typical minimum diameter of a burger patty is 2 inches, and the typical maximum diameter is 6 inches, with a mean of about 4 inches:
That would mean that, depending on the diameter of the patty, and assuming all patties are the same diameter, 1 kilometer equals approximately 6 562–19 685 burger patties, with a mean of 9 843.
(All values were rounded up to the nearest integer.)
Isn't the measurement usually in bananas?
I'm commenting here to follow in case someone replies with images similar to OP's featuring Kilometer changes to Rod Serling, 2 Chainz, and Eddie Furlong.
About 1000 yard.
Or very roughly 100,000 barleycorn.
It's a device for measuring kilos, obviously.
It's a device that measures things in thousands. A kilometer would say a kilometre is 1000 metres. I've bulk ordered 1000 meters if you'd like one.
This is the first convincing argument I've ever seen for imperial.
Wait until you hear of 1.609 Kilometre Davis.
Damn it! Guys our covers blown!
