Only in America would you measure wood in "3/4 inch" instead of millimeters! The irony is delicious—a country that sent humans to the moon with NASA's calculations (done in metric, btw) but can't seem to handle the simplicity of base-10 measurements for everyday life. Meanwhile, the entire rest of the planet is like "19mm? Cool, got it." But no, Americans need their fractions on plywood because apparently decimal points are terrifying. It's like they're allergic to easy conversion! Next they'll be measuring kitchen counters in "football fields divided by hamburgers."
