alt textComic strip of a ghost and a person with the American flag pasted on the head. The ghost repeats "Boo!" in the first three panels without getting any reaction, but when it in the fourth panel says "kg, cm, km, °C" the American gets scared and screams "AHHHH!!!".

Edit: fixed alt text

spelling is hard why make it harder by spelling it "metres"

[-] aquasteel@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 10 months ago

To help distinguish metre, as in length, from a meter, as in volt-meter.

[-] lnee@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

Thats why we call it a volt-meter, or amp-meter or a parking-meter.
