Meh, I like metric, although I do most of my measurements in Imperial, also being from the country - basically most of the talk is all in imperial: gallons, speed, distance ect. Basically snow depth, and rain amount are spoken in metric. Once all the old people die off - it will all be spoken in metric, lol.

You're the kind of ppl we laugh at

I never understood the imperial system. Like how many feet in a mile? What temp does water freeze at? It's all just Radom numbers. To use a decimal system for temp, distance, speed just make more sense to me :dunno:

Your car sucks Tark. I can't believe you didn't spend the extra cash on a 2005+. How dare you.

^Doh. I knew I forgot something. I interact with a lot of personnel from Research In Motion (Blackberry) and they are all Canadian so I get to hear it often.

Instead of Java (pronounced like ja-vah)...they pronounce it "jaa-va" and process (pronounced like pra-cess) is "pro-cess".
