Bacon with cornmeal basically. Its the ABSOLUTE best bacon to use when making eggs benedict.
I don’t know. I like the other Mountie better. The song is great.
I don’t think i have ever tried eggs benedict but then again i have only been to Canada a handful of times in my life. I will however have to be on the lookout for this next time i go.
Would you guys take Ted Cruz back?
Ok, real talk. Explain to me how Imperial/Standard is easier. I want to see this.

Polar bears and beavers obviously.
Pay no attention to the troll.
Even as an American i recognize we should have gone to the metric system decades ago. Also as an American i know for a FACT we get screwed economically constantly by staying on the standard/imperial system. The general populace however are sheeple who can’t think on their own mostly and listen to their chosen party for their leadership (sadly) and until business class buys the politicians off and tell them to go metric for whatever reason, it won’t happen.

Don’t forget furlongs, and acres, and US gallon vs British gallon and all that other silly stuff we changed from in 1973 (yeah, we dug our heals in but we changed eventually)
Enough sense to get to the moon

And here we have another troll.
MURICA!
Lol definitely not, just gotta defend our archaic measuring system 
I feel like Highmountain is a nod to us canadians, more importantly us Western Canadians.

LOL, and don’t forget the German Fascist (can’t say Naz. for some reason) scientist who got us to that moon, i am sure it took him a bit of math to figure out how to make it work…or does the space program use the metric system?
Oh wait, NASA only moved to the metric system in 1990. I guess some people can point to the rocket scientists using both in some cases, so that is like a partial victory for the standard/imperial system.

Is that you Scott?
What would really be great is if Alberta became the 51st state…just saying. The oil could be properly handled then instead of propping up the nations finances. Just sayin.
It’s me…but i’m not Scott.
Nah, this one:

I’m trying to make a point, not be a super jerk by totally rubbing it in.
They actually didn’t know why. They were surprised that it even happened. They were unsure whether Le Grand K lost mass or if the copies gained mass. The only thing they knew for sure was that the two were different. By definition, Le Grand K was a kilogram no matter what, so there was no way to prove it either way. Even if they could count the individual atoms when this occurred, they didn’t know how many individual atoms were originally in Le Grand K.
Ensuring that an important artifact is well-made doesn’t prove that they knew atoms were going to fall out of it. The original meter bar was made to be nice and was cut to specific dimensions and shapes even in directions it wasn’t intended to measure.
You seem to make condescending remarks about things which can be proven wrong with mere seconds on Google. Just like the thread about mount equipment, where you made a ridiculous and arrogant claim before I slapped you down with a Blizzard official support page showing you were wrong.
The irony here is absolutely staggering.
You do realize that if the pound is just some fraction of a kilogram, then a kilogram is a unit of weight, right? After all, the gram is just some fraction of a kilogram. All weights, not mass.
Also, the pound wasn’t always defined this way.
Again, no they didn’t and they never did.
Extrapolating is vastly different from measuring.
The unit of mass is the kilogram. The kilogram is the equivalent mass to a certain amount of energy given off by a photon. What part of balancing two things tells you how much energy photons are giving off? You’re extrapolating the mass based on weight and force.
A balance scale doesn’t even tell you the weight. It tells you a ratio. It measures how much force one thing applies compared to the force another thing applies. It will tell you this ratio regardless of whether or not you know anything about either object.
To clarify, take a balance scale. Pick a rock up off the ground and put it one side. Take a second rock and put it on the other side. The first rock hits the table and other rock gets lifted up. How much mass do they each have? You have no idea, because a balance scale doesn’t measure that.
What a balance scale does, assuming you have a precisely known control in a precisely known environment, is give you the variables you need to extrapolate the mass of the second thing.
