      i’ve seen more clipper guards with mm than with those single digit numbers, which is good because those numbers told me nothing, if i recall correctly they do not match the hair lenght they’d cut to but instead are just numbered from smallest to biggest in the set

    Interesting. Is this often what is used in other countries perhaps? I’m an American and I’ve always been asked in terms of inches. I’d guess centimeter would be used most other places.

          True as hell.

          Small distances? Inches and feet.

          Large distances? Kilometers.

          Outdoor temperature? Celsius.

          Oven temperature? Fahrenheit

          I feel like liquid volume is the only one we’ve truly went all in in metric (oz and gallon aren’t really used day to day)

            Still can’t be sure when buying set of measuring spoons though. Is it a metric cup?
