Yeah, weight still talked about in stone and lbs. But now the kids talk about theirs in kg, so there’s a need for a decision about age for metric/st’lbs”
I do mine in lbs just to be awkward.
Things at work are in kilos, people in conversations are stones. I track my weight in lbs. That’s just the way it is.
“Are you in a pub drinking beer or cider?” is in imperial, although I think glasses are marked at the 568ml level. Spirits are sold in multiples of 25/35 ml.
The significant difference in recipes is that we only measure liquids by volumes (which would be metric) - using cups and spoons for ingredients like flour would get you a funny look, those would be in grams which you would measure by weight.
Instant to see the British version.
Liquids come in pints AND liters.
Something like this:
(I’ve probably missed something, and also I don’t think that lbs for weight is correct, should be stone)
Thanks, great artstyle

I’m very much not a kid but I don’t understand stones at all, so my weight, which I rarely bother to measure anyway, I do in kgs.

This implies young people in general. But even so, imperial is still used within times - its just that both systems are used interchangeably.
Yes, weight should be in stone.

Also, not forgetting the pint is 20oz in UK imperial, so the gallon is ~4.5L Not the 16oz USpint/3.8L US gallon
