Because. That's why.



On a side note: in the military and scientific communities we use the metric system. Only average dumbfucks use the stuff on the left.

So that'll be the other 90-ish percent of Americans? ##

Also geologists have nothing to do with anything but metrics, and I am well versed in both through running various distances ##

Yes, that's the problem.
You do what you want...
And from the looks of it, what you want is fucking madness.

Also, the last one because "February 11th, 2012" rolls of the tongue much smoother than "The 11th of February, 2012."

Because using the metric system results in shotty craftsmanship

Have you stopped to consider how old that building is?
It was completed in 1372, so 640 years old.
How many of today's master buildings would last that long? Not many.

It was also built perfectly straight. The terrain changed under it which is why it leans, not because of the metric system :3
