This is a statement from North Korea, so I'm not sure they'd agree

Current interest rates with six times my salary - not sure I could even afford the repayments.

Baby's birthweights still seem to be mainly in pounds, but it's very difficult to know what it means given that nothing else is typically measured in pounds. Someone will say about their baby "they were 8 pounds" and you'll say, "oh, very good" and neither of you will think of pounds again.

It's weird how it even became a thing. At least I don't remember it being a thing for my broadband contracts until a few years ago.
