8 5/8" x 5 3/8" x 1 5/8"

Don't write yourself off yet, learn metric.

For most of the rest of the world, that's about 219 mm × 137 mm × 41,3 mm

For those of us that don’t use arbitrary made up units at all, that’s 1.35515609E+34 Planck Length x 8.477460474E+33 Planck Length x 2.555613997E+33 Plank Length.

Use real measurements. A meter is how far light travels in 1/299,792,458 of a second? Statements made by the utterly deranged.

Finally a truly universally usable measurement for everyday use

I'm sorry but... Length and Units? Actually disgusting. There is only ONE thing that exists, and it is inversely proportional the base rate of growth in half of a circular degree about a complex orthogonal dimension.

It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on...

just try your best, try everything you can

And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away

moving from Europe to America the amount of times I'm like "it's 12 3/8ths" to try to, yknow, join in, and everyone's like "call it 12 or 13"

motherfucker that's a huge gap!
