Canada is big and sparse, of course we are.

But, what is a mile?

[–] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 day ago

An overcompensated kilometer.

How'd that Ukrainian get 3000 people to lie down for him to shoot over their feet? That's never going to work in a combat situation.

It's easy if you're a good shot; you just kill 3000 enemy combatants in a line and then shoot the 3001st over their feet.

This image reminds me of both catch 22 and slaughterhouse 5.

Ukraine could be done with this whole thing if light grenades were real.

I like the the way you think.

It's an SI-derived unit equivalent to 8 furlongs

what is a mile?

1600 large baguette.

About 1,500 liters of maple syrup

how many football fields is that?

[–] skankhunt42@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

It's 7320 poutines. I'm not sure about football fields.

He was an incredible trumpeter and compose. Feet, though?
