    There’s an old mexican comedy show where the teacher asks a student how many centimeters are in a meter - she answers something like “29. And there’s even room for more!”

          Do not double it more than 17 times or it will not fit.

      You see, Texas wouldn’t fit even once, because it’s twice the size of the earth. Europeans will never understand that.

      I like to bake and I use mostly weights for measuring. When I explain to people how it’s easier and faster, I will finish as a joke that I weigh in stones. Those that know how bad a unit of measure stones would be for baking laugh. I dont think it would work as well using “polands”.

    The Atlantic Ocean can hold 17 Polands. Therefore, the Atlantic Ocean is bigger.
