Several of us lowly undergrads thought of this while studying in the Physics lounge for our exams late at night... ----------------------------------------------------------------- Since McDonald's Restaurants are becoming so very numerous, especially over-seas, the company will eventually have such influence over the entire world, that every facet of our lives will be touched by this growing power. One of the first targets this corporation wishes to dominate is the scientific community. Hence, they have come up with a new, "standard", system of measurement units, titled... The McMeasurement System (McS) UNIT DEFINITION NAME ----------- ------------------------------------- -------- mass one big mac with everything Mac distance height of a big mac box Mcbox time interval between the opening of any Mcsecond two restaurants volume amount of catsup that always remains Splat in the package quantity 50 billion served times the number Ronald's of fries consumed per person number temperature thermal energy of one fry just out Fry of the fryer (on this scale, absolute zero is the thermal energy of a big mac when you finally get it) charge the charge built up in the polyester MegaStacy between the thighs of that really fat chick in her motion from the fryer to the counter ----------------------------------------------------------------- disclaimer: We know it is not standard to have metric prefixes for the definition of a unit, but if you could see Stacy's thighs you would agree that it is appropriate. Thanks goes to Jim & Tom.
