It only becomes a royal pain in the ass when you come from a metric-based country and have to learn the bullpomegranate to adapt to receiving education here.

Oh wait, you have classes in semesters? Lol you.

Alas a .04 round down, couldn't even give him the benefit of a 2.6.

So glad you said that because Dan never jokes and I assumed he was entirely serious. Was preparing to rant so hard.

Which is why a more dynamic measurement is preferred. 2.54 could be very different from 2.5 depending on the girl on the receiving end. You don't exactly go and say, it's not 1', honey, I'm 1.05'. It beats the point of the imperial system to borrow the metric expression.
