wait wtf america doesn't use the same paper sizes as the rest of the world? what happened to this country
@em wh...... WHAT
@em @homosexualdalecoopers I will never understand the US.
@em that’s so weird omfg
@em @homosexualdalecoopers aren't they both 8.5"x11"?
@lyliawisteria A4 is 210mm (8.3") x 297mm (11.7") and vastly better 😉
@em what use is a standard paper size if you have a measurement system that nobody else uses
@em we decided once we threw off imperial power we wanted to be the imperials
@em In 1793, Congress voted to adopt the metric system but the ship carrying the necessary kilogram and meter artifacts from France was attacked by pirates so they never got here.
@em I would do horrible things to be able to use paper with sensible names.
a4 and a5 make so much more sense than letter and digest.
@em
A4?
