I just bought a new socket set (for car repairs) as I lost my last one.
Half the bits are imperial!* What the hell are they selling those for?
My first car was made in 1988, and even that was metric for goodness

Most people who want a metric set of sockets would buy a metric socket
set.

Are you illiterate?


No, I just expected them all to be metric by now.


That's not very bright of you.
