I recently found out about the “acre foot” as a volumetric measurement and instantly died at the stupidity
Na that makes perfect sense for what i assume to be the intended use - measuring the amount of soil you have.
It would, except.. they use it to measure the amount of water in swimming pools.
What!!!!???!??
Yeah my metricpilled brain instantly noped out when I found that out
I've also heard it used in relation to water rights. For example, sometime has the right to extract a certain number of acre-feet from a stream over some amount of time.
