I agree about the dragon. How long does it take to find a dragon?
If we follow the "My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic" guide, then we just need to look for jewels. There, dragons eat precious jewels. I suppose we could search for the elusive Pink Chicken Diamond.

I'm just back from a 380 mile, 10 hour round trip to pick up my eldest son from University.

Whew!

But at least now I'm winning here.
What is this mile thing you speak of?

I win.

Some winning, some losing, some trap setting, some trap evading. Pretty much all in day's work.

I win.

I definitely think it would be faster to just fry the sucker. By the time you find the dragon I will have cooked and eaten it.

I win.

One of the last remnants of the old Imperial system of measurements in the UK. It's still used for road distances, speedometers, horse races (including its subdivision the furlong). One UK Imperial mile is exactly 1609.334m

The only other hold-over is the pint, which is still used for beer and milk. One UK Imperial pint is 20 Imperial fluid ounces, or about 0.568 litres.

I win.

What does British people use for a person's height/weight? Inches and pounds like Americans or centimeters and kilograms like modern people?

BTW I win

That's true in the short term. However, one dragon can cook many chickens quickly, providing us with many more chickens in the long term. All I have to do is take the dragon to a typical chicken farm and we'll have a hundreds of cooked chickens. Even if we give half of the chickens to the dragon, that's still plenty for us.

Still, I win.

I disagree that using the metric system is a sign of modernity. The Metric System and the U. S. Customary System both work, the only significant difference is ease of conversion.
