The eternal battle of measurement systems plays out in three epic showdowns! The first two are diplomatic handshakes between imperial and metric units (pounds vs. kg, inches vs. cm), suggesting peaceful coexistence at the conversion point of zero.

But then we hit the temperature scales, and all hell breaks loose! At 0°F vs. 0°C, we're comparing wildly different temperatures (-17.8°C vs. 0°C). No wonder they're drawing swords instead of shaking hands!

The final panel brilliantly adds Kelvin and Rankine scales to the chaos—absolute temperature scales that start at theoretical zero heat. The scientific equivalent of bringing cannons to a knife fight.

Next time you're converting temperatures, remember this epic battle scene. The metric system might have won most of the world, but Fahrenheit is still fighting the good fight in America!
