Why are US-Americans so stubborn when it comes to metric units? Use ur crappy units in ur country if u like, but on the Internet, most people are NOT from the US and therefore ur numbers mean shit all to us.

I’d say the way you spell “your” and “you” is more annoying

Subtract 32, divide by nine, and multiply by five.

Or subtract thirty and halve it for a rough estimate

Maybe you haven't been on the internet for a very long time, but for the majority of the early internet it was vastly more populous with Americans on most major websites. Also, wouldn't you simply expect people to use the units that they personally are more comfortable with? Also fuck off with your high horse. I agree with skooma_king that your sad spelling is much worse.
