Coke is sold in grams(metric), but also in 8-balls(1/8 oz), quarters, ounces, etc. Weed is also sold in grams, as well as ounces/fractions of an ounce. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74785112 Any idiot can put drugs on a scale and look at the number. It doesn't take any amount of intelligence to remember that 3.5g=1/8oz. Grams are used for small amounts, fractions of an ounce and ounces are used for larger amounts. |

It's the smallest amount of weed most dealers will sell you. But since weed is cheap, people tend to buy in higher amounts such as hal-ounces, ounces, etc. Coke is so expensive that it's much more common to buy a gram. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74785112 Dressed up as Don Quixote? How did the Breaking Bad character learn metric system? Also America didn't invent the system of ounces, pounds, pints, quarts, etc. It's a British system known as Imperial. It's also an inferior system, and most of the world has switched to Metric by now. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 75209584 United States 12/03/2017 03:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Here's a classic article about this very topic: WASHINGTON, DC–Despite other academic shortcomings, inner-city youths possess a firmer grasp of the metric system than their peers in suburban and rural areas, according to a Department Of Education study released Monday. "While the typical teen has only a vague notion of what a kilogram is, teens in the Cabrini Green housing projects in Chicago and the Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles were thoroughly familiar with this unit of metric measurement," said Ira Danielson, the researcher who spearheaded the study. "They were able to identify a kilogram of weight by merely tossing it back and forth in their hands." [link to www.theonion.com (secure)] |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69153735 I want a liter of Cola! Farva For small purchases(poor people purchases), who have less education, the metric system is used. For larger purchases of Cannabis, by people who have more money and are more likely to have college degrees, they use American Standard. So you have it arse backwards... |
