Someone would be surprised
(a.) That the partner they demeaned, insulted and generally treated like rubbish would one day up and leave, and (b.) That I seemed to lack sympathy when they wanted to bleat about it? |

Why can’t speed cameras send a signal to every nearby toll tag when they’re tripped? Even if it’s not you, it’s a much more timely reminder of the cameras than advertising blather.

Yeah, why over complicate things. Ratchets, breaker bars, impacts, typically they're ¼, ⅜, ½ inch drive. Who gives half a crap about the non metric about that. Its sockets where the imperial makes less sense.
Same with measuring stuff. On a tape measure a number like 1659mm is a lot easier to process then say 56 inches and 12 sixteenths. |

Tyre widths are metric, profiles are percentages but rim sizes are still imperial..... Why.....

Nothing a chisel and lump hammer wouldn't fix.
