This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Distance / length is the worst. A lot of people still measure in feet and inches.
Those of us who use metric still probably use feet and inches to measure height of a person, miles to measure distance and miles per hour to measure speed.
I find distance is mixed, only miles when its driving otherwise km usually. I don't drive either so no reason to use miles. For a persons height yeah I do know some people that still use feet for that.
