Literally anything

[u/DelsinMcgrath835]

Honestly, i think this ones fine. Maybe change the 3 baby elephants to 1 of soemthing, but theres something about it being for weight and size that makes this feel better

[u/Automatic_Llama → u/DelsinMcgrath835]

"one juvenile elephant"

[u/knobiknows → u/Automatic_Llama]

That's too much, maybe one three-legged juvenile elephant

[u/karan65 → u/knobiknows]

What about middle school elephant?

[u/no_cool_names → u/DelsinMcgrath835]

1 baby elephant that has the weight of 3 baby elephants.

[u/poop_pants_pee → u/no_cool_names]

I feel like I could kill a man with my toes 

[u/ThosPuddleOfDoom → u/DelsinMcgrath835]

Well at least they tried over it's the weight of 10 small dogs

[u/memebrains]

I don't see the problem with Dr Pepper as a standard of measurement lmao 😂

Are you saying no one's measured a football field with Dr Pepper yet?

[u/Forever_In_a_Sweater → u/memebrains]

A football field is 900 Dr Pepper cans long

[u/memebrains → u/Forever_In_a_Sweater]

I feel a lot smarter now, thank you for that!

Almost like a true 'merican 🦅

[u/Occidere_eos → u/memebrains]

A standard football field is 120 yards (360 feet) long, including the end zones. A typical Dr. Pepper can is about 4.83 inches (0.4 feet) tall.

To cover the length of a football field with cans lined up end to end:

360 feet ÷ 0.4 feet per can = 900 cans

So, it would take about 900 cans of Dr. Pepper to cover the length of a football field

[u/Prcrstntr]

This is designed to be a joke.

Such density is essentially impossible for a normal object and if true would be quickly regarded as one of the most enigmatic objects in the solar system.

[u/Arcaedus → u/Prcrstntr]

At most that rock weighs 10kg, and even that's a big stretch. I'd guess it's probably 1-2 kg.

Baby elephant is like 100 kg.

[u/Taenurri → u/Arcaedus]

Even if it was pure osmium it would only be like 7,860 grams (17 lbs in freedom units)

[u/Shan_Tu → u/Arcaedus]

What in tarnation is a kilogram!?

[u/sovietdoginspace → u/Shan_Tu]

5 big macs

[u/Kashmir1089 → u/Shan_Tu]

Roughly 2.2lbs, I know because of rap music.

[u/Grabsch → u/Prcrstntr]

You could check and see if you find this density somewhere on the way into a black hole. Or very mass rich planets/stars.

In other news: if this object is ORBITING then it has a relative weight of zero - exactly as heavy as three elephants would be orbiting there as well.

[u/okay22232 → u/Prcrstntr]

Well thank you captain know it all.... now please explain why Santa isn't real.

[u/Prcrstntr → u/okay22232]

When I was 8 I asked for a bike and got a scooter instead. This shows why Santa isn't real. 

[u/okay22232 → u/Prcrstntr]

Well that's because you sucked at 8, you're lucky commie Santa didn't show up and give your dinner to your neighbor

[u/closet_texan]

What the fuck is a kilometer?!?!??!?!?!! 🦅🦅🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[u/ftfo42069]

So... how many cheeseburgers and football fields is that?

[u/okay22232 → u/ftfo42069]

Depends. In n out burger or mc doubles?

[u/Qazdud]

Hahaha America stupid and bad!!

[u/junkeruser]

Why not coke, Pepsi or any other 330 ml beverage but Dr. Pepper?

[u/madeupuser → u/junkeruser]

Me an American: The fuck does ml mean

[u/Smokeduprabbit → u/madeupuser]

I'm with this fellow American

[u/Proper_Raccoon7138 → u/junkeruser]

We don’t fuck with coke……

[u/FantomeVerde → u/junkeruser]

I’m sorry, I’m American so I don’t know what that means.

From what I can tell, I think you’re asking something about “Coca Cola, Pepsi, or any other sissy dork unit beverage?”

Coke and Pepsi would be fine to use, but we don’t need whatever it is you’re trying to measure in no-guns and rainbow money.

[u/estist]

You act like this is an attack on metric system when funny enough it is attack on metric and imperial systems. Why couldn't they just say a 5 inches by 3 inches cylinder shape

[u/BackdoorSpecial → u/estist]

Oh gosh not the cylinder again.

[u/TerranWaste]

orbititing

[u/SatisfactionEast9815]

Jeeze, how dense is that rock?

[u/ArisesAri → u/SatisfactionEast9815]

Comparable to the density of a bun, of a hamburger, Like the new Big Angus burger now available at Carls Jr. Whiles supplies last.

[u/87---]

I'd weigh as much as 3 baby elephants if I drank Dr pepper every day. I wish I could but alas 😭

[u/-MolonLabe-]

lol "orbititing"

[u/Doge_is_me]

I prefer this kind of measurement

[u/Pygmypuffonacid1]

Me trying to convert the baby elephants into washing machines.Because that's the standard metric for the midwest these days

[u/bogey9651]

Where is the banana for scale?

[u/Aniket6199]

r/halfagiraffe

[u/EnvironmentalRole645]

Only thing we use metric for around here is ammo sizes

[u/Big0Boss4 → u/EnvironmentalRole645]

And drugs. Gotta be able to trade with them overseas peoples where they can understand.

[u/sillaf27]

“He was about a trailers length short of a touchdown.”

[u/skunkmusket69]

This rock weighs 1384.6 Cod (cans of Dr Pepper) in case yall were wondering.

[u/Vagnernuno]

So... A 15 centimeters meteor so dense that weights 1000 kilos. Isn't that simpler?

[u/xXCrazyDaneXx → u/Vagnernuno]

A metric can holds 330 ml (330 cm²). Osmium is the most dense element at 22,6 g/cm².

According to my math, a Dr Pepper can made entirely of Osmium would weigh (330*22.6= ~7,5kg).

What's this thing made of? Neutron star?

[u/Vagnernuno → u/xXCrazyDaneXx]

I was thinking the same thing.

[u/PlatypusACF → u/xXCrazyDaneXx]

I believe Neutron star is a bit excessive. White Dwarf should do.

[u/PlatypusACF → u/PlatypusACF]

These are certified American units of measurement btw

[u/Sh4dow101 → u/xXCrazyDaneXx]

Yeah this doesn't make physical sense...

[u/No-Butterscotch4850]

We only measure in freedom here, by freedom I mean Dr Pepper

[u/Smokeduprabbit → u/No-Butterscotch4850]

Except half of us call it Coke anyways

[u/moreMalfeasance]

Dr Pepper blackberry sucks

[u/ILikeToDickDastardly → u/moreMalfeasance]

Nice try I'm not putting it anywhere near the can

[u/okay22232]

So it was like 1-100,000 of a football field? Well no shit, that's a heavy rock

[u/Only-Duty2484]

Because freedom fractions got us to the moon. Suck it

[u/19Steve00]

It's fun because the world gets pissed we don't use metric and we don't care

[u/Zestyclose_Advice_90]

I think it's just them using really common understood everyday items everyone knows. Like the weight of a baby elephant

[u/CFClarke7]

r/halfagiraffe

[u/LidiaSelden96]

Object weighed about 4 bald eagles and 2 washing machines

[u/AppropriateAd6946]

Also, the meteor is expected to collide with the earth in 1987.6 Shrek 4 movies time.
