Americans doing absolutely anything to avoid metrication:

Plenty of Americans prefer metric. Scientists, technicians, bakers, hell even surveying is done with a metricized foot. That’s why height measurements of buildings and mountains are done to the tenth of a foot and not feet and inches.

How many bananas in a DeVito?

Only one, but he's considering eating a second one for an afternoon snack

I've never seen Danny Devito in person. He could be over 6 feet tall like John Rhys-Davies in Lord of the Rings and everything is camera tricks to make you think he's short.

It’s somehow also shaped like Devito 🤔
