Nice Units

Kicking off the weekend with a touch of humor. This is from Luck of the Draw Comics. The imperial system of measurement being designed by someone focused on satisfying their kinks would explain a lot about it. Although having said that, the meter was defined as “one ten-millionth of the shortest distance from the North Pole to the equator passing through Paris, assuming an Earth flattening of ⁠1/334⁠”. Which seems an even stupider way of picking a standard length than basing it on your favorite sexy body part.

You can find more from Luck of the Draw on Reddit and Bluesky. They also have a book out.
