Did you here about the second floor NYC deli where the owner

Really? Gee, that's totally fascinating. I bet
the long winter evenings would just fly past
with you as a drinking buddy. Yessir. No doubt
about it. You should be on TV with those stories
and your sparkling personality.
Either that or I could slowly burn my own legs

A meter is something that measures things - like an electricity meter.
A Metre is a unit of measurement - basically because it was invented by the

HOW I GOT A 9 INCHES PENIS... READ MY STORY! / 12.17.2003 12:34

Turn the ruler over, dimwit. Yer reading the millimeter side.

it's spelt millimetre.
it's metre, not meter.
it's French, ya knucklehead.

I measure something in meters. That's right.

A meter is something that measures things - like an electricity meter.
A Metre is a unit of measurement - basically because it was invented by
the
French.

Yeah? Well, I've got a meter stick that measures out meters.
Unfortunately, I broke it shoving it up the ***** of some pompous asshat
who insisted I spell it 'metre'.


i gotta ask... what's an 'asshat'?

I've always pictured an asshat as what someone wears when they've lubed
up their scalp down to the eyebrows, preferably with a liberal helping
of santorum (google that term for a laugh) and inserted their cranium
into their own rectum. Or someone else's, I'm kinda equal-opportunity
in that regard.
YMMV, of course.

<sighn> Can *none* of you cretins can actually be bothered to
look it up in a dictionary? Noooo, because it's not about being
correct, it's all about arguing your anal-retentive case, isn't
it? aka. *****-waving, mental masturbation...etc.

The definitions I gave are a summary of the ones in my dictionary. This may
be the British term only.

Generally Metre is the international one - because it doesn't need
translating as much.
