THE METRIC SYSTEM SUCKS!

We are of the firm belief that the metric system sucks.  It is a global conspiracy created to cause the downfall of all things that we know and love.  Upon careful examination it is clear that the metric system is at least indirectly responsible for most of the world's problems, including but not limited to:

Government conspiracy Microsoft Windows Rap Music Hondas and their drivers Transistors Pokemon Jerry Springer Televangelism Toxic waste The Republicans The Democrats Defective and bogus hardware Wrenches that dont fit Starbucks coffee Communism Soccer The Euro

THE ENGLISH SYSTEM KICKS ASS!

This site's purpose is to explore all of these issues in detail.  Our goal is to make clear the many advantages of the English Standard system, which is clearly responsible for the finer things in life, including but not limited to:

Linux The GNU project Wrenches that fit perfectly American cars Vacuum tubes South Park Mr. Rogers The Pope The hanging gardens of Babylon Recycling World Peace Zen J.R. "Bob" Dobbs Bolts that fit nuts Folgers Coffee and the Percolator Free market capitalism Chess The US dollar
