The SI system came up with an arbitrary number to equal our superior english system.
2.54 cm in an inch? Who the fuck came up with that??
Just pull a fucking number out of thin air and call it a system...

I don't understand why people don't adopt kg's to describe their fatness, would you rather say you weigh 160 lbs or 72 kgs?

and if you want to describe things that are light you can always use grams..?

Same thing with height, it would be easy to compare heights if everyone used meters, so much fucking easier.
