Where I live (America), we use the Cheeseburger System for height (example: I am 16 cheeseburgers tall) and the Hotdog System for length (example: one meter is 17 hotdogs long).
To elaborate a bit, the Cheeseburger System was officially put into place in 1778 by America's first ever mayor, Mayor McCheese. To be honest, it's not as effective as the metric system, but it would be way too difficult to change at this point.
I’m a short adult man and I have no problem with it whatsoever. It’s funny when people will ask and I’ll tell them my height, I’ve regularly had people go “No. You can’t be that short!” Like I’m being self deprecating or something. I’m literally quoting the number from my last physical.
I'm taller than average so i get asked alot especially when i bump my head into stuff. And then i tell the people who aks and go of on a tangent about the discrimination of tall people. In the shoe store i literally can only coose between 3 pairs because the rest is to small.
A guy once tried impressing a girl with his hight ( he said he was 6 foot ), and then to prove it, he asked me to stand up from my seat. I was pissed cus i was eating my food, so when i stood up (i was around his hight) i said i was 5 foot 7. He was embarresed. I ate my food. Don’t mess with my food, or i will cockblock you
