Is it time for the US to adopt the metric system?

[Husar]

Is there some problem I'm not aware of that this would fix? The term 'Metric' sounds like a nerdy loser in a SciFi movie. Ordering five hundred and sixty-eight milliliters of beer at the local wateringhole is also a nerdwuss move and might get you thrown right out.
If it ain't broke...

Enough of this nancy talk, be a man and march a mile and down a pint and refer to your unit of measuring system as IMPERIAL!

Spoken like a truly conservative old woman.

That you want to be a man worries me a bit as well but regardless of that you can get a 0.5 liter beer here as well, it's less scary than having a base of a dozen or something or to make it short, I can't really calculate in imperial very well and i don't see why anyone would want to as it's overly complicated and directly opposes (in name and degree of complication) the american ideas of freedom and democracy.

In other words, the USA are still lagging behind their former imperial overlords here.
Although it fits rather well with their being overall very conservative.
