From Newsgroup: rec.humor

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, itrCOs more logical bro!
itrCOs more human bro!
you donrCOt even have to check it online!
just count your wet hairs and yourCOre good to go!
