The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.
The metric system was shoved down my throat by an idiot. I don't use it. Fahrenheit is so much more accurate.
Miles per Hour is for real Men.
We still build shit with two by fours as well

Well... the medieval non-metric system is still used by three countries; Myanmar (Burma), Liberia and the USA.
But if you are talking Fahrenheit, that's down to just one....
Seriously, water freezes at 0 and boils at 100.
That's logical. Easy to understand.
No wonder Anders Celsius's scale has taken over the world.
Edit: I stand corrected. Apparently Bahamas and Liberia also use Fahrenheit.
Damn, Liberia really must be a backward country!
Whatever you do, always give 100 %!
Except when donating blood.
Also, having driven in the Finnish countryside, I have noticed that whereas I interpreted the speed signs to indicate maximum speed in km/h, most locals seem to interpret them as minimum speed in mph...
No wonder they produce so many rally world champions, for them that's just like driving to or from work.

Maybe time to go prehistoric again and switch from the eagle to the pterodactyl.
Are the countries in white, those it has not invaded. Belize (British Honduras) and Guatemala still have an unsettled border dating back to colonial times in both countries. The case appears to be headed to the ICJ for settlement.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.
I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Yup. Although their definition of invaded is rather generous. Many of those, eg Finland, I would say were attacked rather than invaded, but still. Sweden is one of very few countries that has not experienced aggression from British soldiers on our soil.
