Actually, as much as I dislike imperial units, when it comes to body temperature I do think in Fahrenheit. Mostly because that’s how my mum would tell if we were too sick to go to school. 99 - just a little ill, but you can have the day off. 100 - pretty ill, probably at least 3 days off. 101+ - super mega ill, off all week.
Shamelessly stolen from I can’t remember.
Brits use tons and tonnes as separate units? Not confusing at all
I mean there is have metric ton, british ton and american ton. Or tonne. Idk, its all the same in our language.
When I think tonne, I think 1000kg. When I think ton, I just think of the vernacular “tons of stuff” type expression.
