Ha!

Metric.

Where does water boil? 100 degrees. Freeze? zero. What's a kilometer divided by 2? 500 meters. By 2 again? 250 meters. Again? 125...75...37.5...18.75..9.375 or 9 meters and 37.5 centimeters which can be divided into any amount you want, and is more accurate than the measuring tape. What's your system?

Imperial.

boil? not sure. Some arbitrary number. Freeze? dunno. 1/2 mile. 1/4 mile 1/8 mile. I don't know. Screw it. Fuck off!

I can walk and measure in feet, so our system is better.
