RULES:
"pound foot" is the most intuitive name for a unit of force imaginable!
How much force? One pound of the foot. Easy!
Red Foreman agrees... "one pound of my foot in your ass"
It's one pound per foot you moron!

Not just any old foot, a square one
What do I do with my old foot then?
Better than "newton-meters" , yeesh. What the hell is a "newton"?
Actually, what the hell is a "meter"?
The mnemonic for remembering a newton is actually one of my favorites. It's the force required to move 1kg by 1m. A kg being roughly the mass of an apple makes Newton a natural and somewhat clever fit for the concept.
What kind of monster apples are you eating??
It's a derived unit of torque. Pound is already a measure of force.
Of this, you and I, are quite aware.
The Joke, however, is in the air.
