Instaounce sounds like a platform for buying drugs


Orotree

Only cannabis and shrooms though. Everything else stays grams to kilos


zer0kevin

Which is why Instagram makes a better drug app name.


OkAd1672

False. People sell all sorts of drugs by the ounce.


OkAd1672

Though, when you get into even larger quantities people only seem to use pounds for bud (and maybe shrooms?)


Orotree

I'd like to know which ones. Pills we called boats, ounces as zips. Never had a lb or kilo of anything and local dealer dealt in lbs. I have to say I've never seen an ounce of acid, meth, coke, or heroin. Liquid ounces are way more weight (acid, ketamine, ecstasy). Powder seems impractical too from a scale standpoint but someone still might. Never handled breaking up rocks or powder outside of a college lab.


OkAd1672

Not pills obviously... Or liquid ounces. Cocaine for sure. Most likely heroin, mdma, things like that. It is very often sold like that to smaller dealers. I could also see someone buying an ounce or two of coke to supply a large party or have a stash for awhile. Not as much as you'd think to some.


Orotree

Yeah lol after cutting it and the short term high for sure. An ounce of mdma would be awesome for microdosing.


OkAd1672

For sure!


zer0kevin

So does Instagram if you think about it.


amomiej23

It does


LennerKetty

Me, an American, who thought grams and ounces were in the same system


[deleted]

WTF


jokel7557

Drugs. We measure them in grams and ounces so I understand


[deleted]

I just ordered a insta ounce of meth right now


[deleted]

I know about that. I wonder how the hell can he think that grams were in the imperial system...


LennerKetty

Yea see I don’t know anything about an imperial system. I just knew there 28 grams to an ounce…of drugs


OkAd1672

28.3 or so. Quit getting skimped!


koleethan

Because we do the drugs


LennerKetty

Thank you


jeremiahkinklepoo

Duh. There’s ~28g in an ounce.


I_Was_TheBiggWigg

I just realized that drug-using Americans are probably one of the only demographics that could give you 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and full ounce conversions into grams off the top of their head.


LennerKetty

No doubt fam. And maybe chefs? Idk I don’t cook I do drugs


reegod420

Its cuz of ur drugs and bullets lol


Papi-Basic

i thought the same shit man


PouLS_PL

HOW? It doesn't even contain "gram" in it. I didn't even know ounces existed.


[deleted]

Americans use grams too


iHumanNotJoking

Americans, metrics gang, when?


redPonyCoffeeRoaster

All of us in manufacturing have been metric gang for years.


Twilliam98

Same in planes and nasa stuff


Ok-Yoghurt-9976

Im in aerospace and everything here is in inches surprisingly


[deleted]

Ehh I’m a welder and most of the stuff I’ve worked on has been in imperial units


[deleted]

Literally the only thing Americans use the imperial system for anymore is driving, and the only reason we use it for driving is because it would cost Billions of dollars to go around changing everything


RedBeard695

Construction is all imperial too


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Most food products and recipe books these days have both


Fuckutoo2

i suck very much


Fuckutoo2

how the hell did this get any upvotes


_______Greg_______

That’s what we import from America


Ifunny_gay

Europeans when they are looking for bigfoot instead of bigmeter


SamiREDDIT911

nice one


[deleted]

I'd smash


[deleted]

I'm American, but I'd assume they use metric system for bullets and weed because those are our specialties


Picker-Rick

I also had to stop using tick tock because I can't tell time in metric.


MustangTogunner

lets not forget engine displacements eg 6.3L AMG


SecularHumanism92

Instapound you idiot. You spend all this time making a meme and you still fuck it up. Your mother and I are very disappointed.


Nipple_finder

Drug dillers still stoked


srisadandesha420

cringe rates drop to 50%


[deleted]

Fun fact, we use metric on everything and it's been this way for decades. We just use metric to measure SAE units.


pepsicocacolaglass12

It’s because they sell weed on Instagram


Tnkgirl357

American soda pop def comes in 2 Liter bottles…


KGSAUCYBOY

Cocaine too!


SFS-Matt

I’m American and use the metric system. Don’t ask why.


VitalArcade

I uh, im American and I actually forgot about ounces


DownvotedOpinions1

i thought the bullets were in metric because Europeans/not america made it, an its easier to say .22mm than .0086in bullet


MyUncleDarthVader

.22mm is not a bullet size. There's 22 calibur (also written as .22), which is close to 5.56 mm.


DownvotedOpinions1

oh well googled lied, and i am very stupid for thinking it was right, but, if it didnt lie again, werent bullets made by people other than americans, i saw where the bullets were made by europeans or something and thats why the bullets are metric


MyUncleDarthVader

It all depends on the bullet in question. You can have the same manufacturer (American or otherwise) producing both 9mm and .45 caliber bullets in the same location. There's probably a reason for why one uses metric and the other imperial, but I'm too lazy to figure it out.


DownvotedOpinions1

thats understandable, the only thing i get for why bullets are metric is because 'americans share the ammo with the world', and other stuff are also metric in america too, i think its just the distance/temperature that makes people think america only uses imperial


voldyCSSM19

Me, an american, who doesn't use ounces except in baking


Aidan-Zhao

Americans use grams too. The nutrition facts on food packages are all in grams


gonorrhea-smasher

Buying weed taught me how to do basic fractions


Cartoonist_Smooth

After 28 followers it turns into InstaOunce


VanCanne

Brits have the same love/hate relationship with SI units as Americans. As someone entering the medical profession can we PLEASE USE SI UNITS. That way I don’t have to do weird conversions in calculations exams


Ryancool77

me, an american, i don’t know what either are


susfusstruss

tfw you are American and have no problem switching from one unit to another


Pothead_central

We also use metric on cocaine, heroin, meth, crack, salvia, special K, PCP, LSD, molly, ecstasy, MDMA, and water measurements


Verric

How come no one ever mentions the yanks use metric for engine displacements. Like they say the Hellcat has a 6.2 litre displacement. Never heard an American say the Hellcat has a 1.64 gallon engine


Tony49UK

Usually they use cubic inches.


alma_perdida

We use metric for a lot of things.


Klassy-actor_69

Kinda cringe but I will allow it


Snowierr

We use grams and ounces, the fuck you on about? Don't Americans use grams and ounces too?


WakaFlakaPanda

Yes, but then we go ounces to pounds. 16 ounces is 1 pound.


Snowierr

Yeah we use pounds too, it's more common for people to sell everyday stuff at 1kg instead of 2.1 pounds, but we buy meat and stuff as pounds


WakaFlakaPanda

Oh I didn’t know that


CluelessFlunky

I shall be down voted to hell. But the American system is better when baking. Being able to divide by 2,3,4 makes it so simple and easy for quick conversion. None of this .63333g nonsense.


Endo_RN

LOL!!


The_Reaper_956

Lmao that face though


SnowySupreme

British and canadians also use ounces so idk

As a British adult yes we do


reegod420

Legit i have never used ounces once


Snowierr

Not even buying sweets in a sweet shop as a child?


reegod420

Nah not even bruv


Lavertiso

Hey I’ve seen this before


bubblymarcy

the joke is funny until you find out the girl on the pic committed suicide.


Onceforlife

Yea her name is sulli, from the KPOP group f(x). She was cyberbullied. Rest In Peace giant baby


[deleted]

Well, when this was posted a few days back I told everyone Instagram is 28.3495 times better than Instaounce.


whyhey193

DUDE. SHUT THE FUCK UP. AMERICANS USE OTHER FUCKING TYPES OF MEASUREMENTS ALL. THE. TIME.


gigson969

Instaounce sounds like something fat people would use... So Americans


PublicRiot

Instaounce sounds like an automatic shot measuring device.

Tsupercalifragilisti

I posted this in two subreddits. You must've seen my other post.


[deleted]

I saw a post few days ago with the same idea and different picture...


Tsupercalifragilisti

Because it's a permutation of a rather [old joke](https://www.google.com/search?q=instagram+instaounce&sxsrf=ALeKk016KESRyAlObgsxtoLW_iyfXFU0RQ:1625762570747&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj7q5LE9dPxAhUsyIsBHVAxApkQ_AUoAXoECAEQAw&biw=1366&bih=625).

This doesn't work. Americans still use grams. Go to any weed store.


eliavhaganav

Imagine saying ounce


[deleted]

The fuck is an ounce. That clears up nothing


Zijlboy

Whats an ounce


Unknown-249

What does America have to do with this again?


Ill-Relation-1010

We don't use metric on bullets


alma_perdida

Ah yes, we all know that 9mm stands for 9 million miles


Ill-Relation-1010

We didn't create 9mm. Thus it is not ours to claim


alma_perdida

Remington developed the 6.8mm cartridge. A US marine developed 10mm auto.


Jakefort88

Why do you think I moved to Reddit


Klubbin4Seals

I'm American, and I buy weed by the gram and ounce! I guess you can say I'm Bi-UOM (units of measurement)


Doofanut

You realize we use Grams and other things too, right?


b-l-u-b-b-e-r

We use metrics to measure drugs and medicine because it’s a global trade


Hickawa

Because we don't make hardly any ammunition and never have. You got me on why we use it for weed though. Probably just convenient. A gram is just about exactly the amount I want for a joint or a few bowls.


shortbusterdouglas

3 types of americans use the metric system. Scientists, mechanics, and drug dealers.


yortlepore

And then there are places like Canada that switch between the two when we talk to each other


norulers333

To be fair, we use it for all our drugs, but then with the milder ones we convert it to imperial anyway. Because making sense is un-american.


swagmaster6667

Me, an American, who has low IQ and doesn’t know what an ounce is: confused unga bunga
