Here's a scary story. In college, some friends and I were at some other friends' place and there was a big bag of reefer on the coffee table.

One girl inquires: "Wow! How much is in there?"

Guy replies, "An ounce."

Girl: "How many eighths is that?"

Entire rooom in unison: "EIGHT."

Girl: "Well geeze, I don't know anything about metrics."

I am not kidding. This conversation really took place between folks who had made it into college.
