So i was raised kinda in the south of america but I don't call myself very southern or overly american(im well traveled compared to most people i grew up with so i guess that kinda warped the view) but one thing that i do that my friends love to shove in my face is that i can only measure long distances in football fields
American football or football it doesn't matter since they're played on the same field in all of my schooling
But seriously my friends were talking about hectares and I sat there nodding through the entire conversation and then when it's almost over i go
"so imma need someone to tell me how many football fields that is"
I kid you not i got a lot of stares
I do not understand how to picture acres or miles in my head, but I can do football fields, up to 20~ yards, and inches fine
