    How would Americans look when they realize they’re using metric units to measure voltage, instead of some base 12 absurdity that is based on the measurements of some royalty?

    The British invented the term soccer. If they give you shit about using it, tell them they can fuck right off.

        Yeah, it’s like saying we should call rugby “rugger”, because that’s what the old Etonians called it (I don’t know if they still do).

    Most of the world calls it football because feet and ball. American football is usually referred to as commercials or ads.

      Etymology-wise, football is actually called football because it’s done on foot as opposed to on horse.

      It seems so stupid to me that Americans took over the name football for a sport thats not even mainly played by foot, and then pretend like thats the sport that naturally belongs to the name. Like wtf.

        This is why the fuck: american football evolved from Association Football (soccer) and rugby. Americans didn’t take over the name, the names for each version of the “ball game on a field with goals at either end” developed from different regional slang as each sport evolved and grew into popularity in their respective places. Each of those sports developed various shortened or slang versions of their name. Rugby was really Rugby football. Association football became soccer, a term coined in London and adopted by Americans. Gridiron football evolved from both and become what Americans just called football.

    There are 60% yanks : Association football
    There are 30% or less yanks : football
    There are 0% yanks, and 100% Brits that actually like this boring sport : Footy

      Brits use the word because they weren’t competent enough at Ōllamaliztli, so they had to invent a lesser sport with no ritual sacrifice.
