Now, just get weighed in outer space.

the best method? strip and look at yerself in a full-length mirror. no gettin’ around That evidence.

The biggest loser? Just stay above the yellow line.

That sort of confusion ruined a perfectly good Mars orbiter

Every single country on earth has gone metric – except for America and Myanmar.

The world can have America’s rulers and yardsticks when they pry them from our cold dead hands!!

Thousands of years of different ways to measure and weigh things throughout the world down to millionths of whatever measure, yet a cubit is still a cubit; from the point of the elbow to the tip of the extended central digit. My salute and salutations!

Conversion? We don’t have no conversion. We don’t need no steenkeen conversion!I just pick one. Besides, when I told the guy in the shoe store I needed a size 26, he about fell over.

You’re still fat, Fat Broad. 6 of one; half a dozen of another.

Example as to how easy and useful it is:“We’re not privatizing your Social Security your recent forefathers, in their wisdom, bequeathed to you…but because you can handle your money better than the government, take this 401k…”

Now known as the 101k. They are SNAKES: they can’t NOT bite you. It’s what they do…and that’s all they do…if allowed to live, the financial class will figure out a way to steal everything you could ever have. That’s how they make their living, it’s a highly developed human subclass, completely parasitic and quite successful at it…perhaps by now a genetic development, in spite of what modern biology tells us, perhaps characteristics ARE acquired.

Of course there’s the obvious paranoid counter-argument which says, yes, there are many families whose primary service to humanity is living off its betters’ efforts. That’s the claim of what we used to call Labor, and it’s also the secretly expressed view of the financial class I inveigh against….looks like the gloves are coming off in society again.

And looks like we can expect greater political conflict as the haves continue to enter every arena to expand and consolidate their power. It was only by mastering politics that slavery was ended, that Martin Luther King’s vision was set rolling, and that so many Americans live on Social Security, safe from winter’s winds and having shelter and enough food for a Thanksgiving dinner.

We’ll be having more political debate, and maybe…more intelligent political debate. What do you think is a good way to live?

I’m surprised the scale didn’t say, “Come back when your alone.”

Or, “one at a time please.”

A good way to live? Free. Free from the tyrany of those sucking off the govt tit and free of the govt masters taking from me at the point of a gun to give to the leaches that which the user and leaches cannot take from me, my life, liberty and property.

Let each man care for his own family, wife, children, parents, and grandparents. Confine the govt to the absolute smallest intrusion into his life as possible, an only that expressly allowed in the constitution.

If God only ASKS for a tenth, why must the govt TAKE 5/10?

No, she just removed a leaf from the scales that was left behind by the ants yesterday. :-)

I’d give her a laughing scale.

A Kilogram is like 2.25 lbs. She would weigh mo in Kilos than lbs.

But in tons, she only weighs 0.13.

either way – I still weigh less than the Fat Broad!

(rude) If she is 260 lbs then she must be 4 ft tall.

As the comic said: It’s a number game. When it gets to the number you want jump off.

I started using metric conversion for my age. 2:1 works great for me, and brings me closer to the age I “feel”, versus my actual age! Enjoy the weight change FB, there will still be lots of you to love! ;-)

The reason that didn’t work is the number in kph is larger than the number in mph, for the same speed.

Canada’s rush to metrics almost resulted in a major air crash. Research the Gimli Glider, ie out or fuel at 40,000 feet due to a faulty gallon/liter conversion.

Actually, we’ve already gone partly metric. I have home movies that are 400 ft X 8 mm.

What place on Earth measures distances between locales in kilometers, posts speed limits in MPH, sells its fuel by the liter and its real estate by the square meter?

The answer is Puerto Rico.

Or, “Garfield, is that you?”

Stop gobbling all those barbequed brontosaurus ribs.

She needs a truck scale!

Wonder how old Fat Broad is in dog years.

I had to get rid of my talking scale.

It kept telling me “One at a time..one at a time!”

So when do you want to adopt the French (metric) calendar and clock?

Booo!!!! ;-) Luckily that joke can be used in so many situations, as long as there are old people or old books about the olden days!

LOL! No jingle?!?

A smile always looks good. No extra weight, lol!

She oughta get an old-school British scale, then her weight’d be 18 stone 8!

The fat broad would faint if the scale displayed her weight in stones. (1 stone = 14 pounds)

Good one! lol

Talking scale? Would it say ‘no weight’ing while weighing’?.I have one foot firmly planted in metric and imperial. Baking measurements are in both. shoes in both. I translate metric to pounds when grocery shopping. I do 10 K runs (well, walk the run) but measure distance in town by time not length (which as a Cdn, most of us who walk – measure by how long it takes to get there). And my weight and height by imperial and the temperature by Celius. .Viva la difference!

Well of course, there are more kilometers in a mile.
