Do you really need to drink 5 metric gallons of water in one go?

    The metric gallon is part of America’s implementation of the metric system. There’s also metric feet and metric pounds.

      You joke, but we learned “tons” and “metric tons” in elementary school.

      I assume it’s the reason “metric” is used as an adjective this way.
