  • I refuse to tip on anything except things that are traditionally tipped, e.g. haircuts, non–fast food establishments, delivery, etc. I think it’s ridiculous how seemingly everything is expecting a tip now.

    But, that being said, when I do tip, I tip exceedingly well. Typically a minimum of 80–100%. I know how much they rely on tips, and I love seeing them smile when they see the tip quantity. :)

    Downside is I can’t afford to go those places or do those things very often. But what can you do? ¯\(•_•)


  • Yes, you’re right.

    There have been multiple iterations of the “metric system” since it’s introduction in 1792–1795, most notably the original 1795 draft variant, then the CGS (Centimeter-Gram-Second) version, then the MKS (meter-kilogram-second) variant, with the most recent incarnation being the International System of Units (SI).

    That’s why there are plenty of metric units, but not all of them are SI units. :)

     


    Edit: Changed “1892–1895” to “1792–1795”. Lol, whoops.
