    How about 32 FEET/sec/sec?

    You know, I was taught the imperial system as a kid. Then the government switched to metric. When I did my physics degree I used all metric, so physical measurements pertaining to scientific papers only make sense to me in metric. If you tell me how much you weigh in kilograms or the outside temperature in degrees Celsius, it's meaningless to me. I need it in pounds and Fahrenheit. So 32 feet/sec/sec is like fingers on a chalkboard to me, but saying you weigh 180 lbs is nice!

      Likewise Fahrenheit and pounds is completely meaningless to a lot of people (myself included). Funny how the world works.
