    Is that 7 toes lengthwise or side-by-side? And which American toes? Lady liberty, or a normal human adult, or a child? Perhaps a newborn?

    Man I hate our measuring system, it’s so complicated.

      Are you a transplant here or something? Those answers are all clearly side-by-side Liberty toes. Real Americans are born with that knowledge.

        See I mean that’s what I assume, too, but whomever starts their post with metric is clearly not used to the conversions into freedom units and so one must verify they did they math correctly. In case they are egregiously off the mark.

      The small part of the feet also used to measure things. You standardised those, right?
