Soda is generally sold in 2L bottles here, with single liter bottles growing in popularity. Alcohol is usually sold by the ml, though in units like “fifth” and “handle.”
Milk though, milk is sold in half-pints (not sure why they don’t write cup), pints, quarts, half-gallon, or gallon. I like to pretend a quart is a shrinkflated liter though.
For non-metric users, three gallons of milk is probably more accessible. 400 kg is 880lb, which is roughly 12x as dense as water, which is the wild part (or it feels like it, that could be a totally normal density for stone, I’ve already put too much effort in for napkin math on a shitpost)
So palladium is has a density of 12.02, which it’s price per ounce a little under 2000 CAD, that “corgi” is worth ~$27,846,525.99 CAD at current prices.
“0.012 m3 meteor weighing 400 kg hit Texas”
Boooooring.
you could also say 12L meteor weighing 400kg … which is pretty cool, imagine 12 cartons of milk weighing the same as 4 fairly large people
1.5 fairly large people. You’re talking to Americans, remember.
I mean they were probably already confused by the L and the cartons of milk …

In your example of why the American system is bad resort to using the American system because nobody had any context?
Check mate atheists.
So it’s roughly the size of a bucket.
Well. A corgi-sized bucket, anyway. Not one of the bigger ones, great dane or so.
Couple of buckets if it’s corgi size.
