"No they have the metric system, they don't know what the fuck a quarter pounder is"
Fractions aren't imperial, fractions are fractions, everyone has them. It's the 'pound' that's imperial and normal people don't use.
Movie clip
#woosh
How could OP have transcribed the movie clip so wrong, but still made an absurdist joke? Thanks for clearing it up.
I've been a victim of Poe's Law, but there has to be some threshold where it's not ambiguous.
Recently it occurred to me that in the US we have 25¢ coins but $20 bills. It never bothered me before but it's really odd. Especially when many other countries have 20"¢" coins.
20¢ coins would be better for transitioning away from smaller denominations of coins. If you got rid of everything smaller you could drop a decimal place.
We can already just round to the nearest quarter. Basically no machines take anything less than quarters.
