Signs that tell you more than the price.

Hats on cats can be amusing too. Merlin here is quite happy to pose, as long as he's the centre of attention.

Try converting PSI, pounds per square inch, into metric.

My brain is fully confused now

Putting air pressure into a car's tyres requires a figure. In imperial it's something around 24 pounds per square inch. In metric all the handbook gives you is a number, for Tina's VW Golf it's 19. But there's no clarification of what 19 defines.

1,9 BAR would be plausible. It's 27,557 PSI.

You Europeans often use a comma where we Americans would use a decimal point. So when I read "27,557 PSI" as "Twenty seven thousand, five hundred fifty seven PSI" my first thought was, "What, are you trying to inflate a blimp?"

^ Despite their size those "monster truck" tires are only inflated to 8-20 PSI for a variety of reasons.

Comma isn't the accounting "thousands-point".

Being retired, I often wake up confused but always happy, since I don't care what day it is.

Well. At this point every woman just says “yes dear “ [emoji12]

 

[Trenchfriend]

And the five words of a functioning marriage:

Hubby: "My dear, your are right."

My icecream-bowl made me smile, right now.

Try it, it's awesome:

-Amarena cherry
-banana split
-coconut

Not yet having a name for that. "Gilligan's island", maybe.

After fifty wonderful years with some amazing highs and some stormy lows I know it's the guy who says "Yes dear." And woe betide him if there is the slightest hint of a patronising tone in his voice. It takes fifty years to realise that:
"Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea."

I encountered some non-metric hold-outs back in the 1980s in southern Germany, (Franconia to be exact). I would be in the Metagerei, (Butcher shop), and hear people asking for "Eine Pfund Hackfleisch", (a pound of ground meat), or "Eine viertel-pfund Bauernschinken" (a quarter pound air-cured ham). What they would get was 500 grams, (1.1 pounds) and 125 grams respectively. While goods were measured metrically, the older terms had been adapted to the 'new' measurements and were still in use.
