Today, I had to explain to my boyfriend that miles are the same distance for everything. He thought that human miles were different than mouse miles, because they're smaller. He's 34. FML

Damn, so when that mouse was bragging to me about running several miles, he was talking about ACTUAL miles?! That IS impressive.

This is why one ought to use metric measurements. Far simpler, although he still wonder about human meters versus mouse meters.

Metric system vs imperial. It's all in what you are taught. That's like saying the whole world should speak (insert your common tongue here) because it is easier to speak. It may be to you, but not to everyone.

Metric is superior to imperial for many reasons, but lack of confusion with mice distances is not one of them.

Metric system is superior on all points, and by not having a unit related to some persons body dimensions is one of the biggest benefits. Besides, only one country still uses it, but everytime it becomes important, the smart scientist and engineers calculate it in the metric system.

A mile and a nautical mile are different lengths to be fair.

Worst part is that he isn't even the dumbest person out there.

Seriously?.. Do u speak mice language to deny the fact there is a possibility of him being tight? Distance is relative.. That's why there is so many measures for it.. Miles is not the only unit.

One mouse mile is 160 meters, assuming the feet is one centimetre long.
