How tall are you, and how much do you weigh?

[–] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

I use the metric system for both, and I'm from the UK. I don't even know my weight in stone anymore, but a stone is just 14 pounds, like how 16 ounces fit into a pound. It has about as much to do with a real stone as a foot in distance has to do with the foot on your leg. Or a metre with a parking meter.
