• imperial system for humidity

    From validator@21:1/5 to All on Wed Aug 21 12:32:44 2024
    be me, living in a world where metric is for nerds
    introduce the "Hair Dampness Index" (HDI)
    every morning, count how many hairs on my head have water drops
    newscasters start reporting the HDI on the weather
    "Today's forecast: 200 HDI in the morning, rising to 2500 by afternoon"
    some dude claims his hair hit 10,000 HDI, everyone calls him out
    debates break out on whether to shampoo before or after measuring HDI
    imperial system strikes again, somehow more confusing than ever

    but hey, it’s more logical bro!
    it’s more human bro!
    you don’t even have to check it online!
    just count your wet hairs and you’re good to go!
