That's ridiculous, if I wanna get "big frikkin' holes" in my ears I should be able to without having to worry about people sticking stuff in them without my consent. It doesn't justify what her brother did or why you guys are defending him.

Been wondering if your heart's still open

Ever thought of calling when you've had a few?

Do I wanna know?

...that doesn't make any sense, as far as I know that isn't wrong. It's her ears, she can do what the hell she wants with them without getting comments like yours.

Because they probably don't know more French words?

Author?

Well that escalated quickly...

Maybe they meant gay as in happy (/^▽^)/

Why the fuck were you downvoted for that comment?

Wow, you guys really didn't like that comment, did you?

I'm pretty sure the title was supposed to be sarcastic...

Sure, here you go:

But I do understand you, if someone was looking down on my country like (some) funsubbers do to the US, I'd also be defending my home.

Seriously? There are about 300 million people living in the US who (I assume) mostly use the Fahrenheit scale. There are 7,1 billion people in the world. The majority of those people use Celsius. Not only is Celsius scale pretty easy to remember (0°C is when water freezes and 100°C is when it boils), I'm sure it would improve and simplify communication between both USA and the rest of the world.
And of course you have it hard wired into your brain since (again, I'm assuming) you were born into a country that uses Fahrenheit. You were taught how to use Fahrenheit in school and obviously it feels most natural for you to use it. The same way I have the Celsius scale hardwired into my brain. But if you guys switch to Celsius your next generation would have Celsius hardwired into their brains. Adaptation would probably be hardest for your elders but after a few years Celsius will feel just as natural to your youngers as Fahrenheit feels to you now.

It's not about hating on the US, its just that it would be hella lot easier if the whole world used the same measurement scales.

It's not so easy for some, how about those who are fat because of a disease? Let me guess, they should just get healthy and then go work out.
