Got three bottles of wine for new year's eve only to find out my brother in law isn't gonna show up this year. That means I'm the only one here that'll drink more than a glass. Here goes the first:

Captain Foo posted:beer can pounders are the perfect example of why u.s. measurements are insanely bad For any purpose where you don't need to be exact, 1 oz of water (or beer) weighs pretty drat close to 1 oz though, so 16 oz of beer is only about 5% away from actually weighing a pound (not including the can). I did assume the name came from just pounding beers into your face though. Edit: and I'm not trying to defend our stupid as gently caress measurement system, just that this is one time when it is close enough to be workable.

In Dutch a colloquial name for 500 gram is a pound, and 16oz is near enough 500ml so I figured from that context.

A customary fluid ounce of water weighs slightly more than 1 oz., but converting from volume to weight is a simple process. Enter the value in fluid ounces into the calculator. Check the calculator display to make sure you entered it correctly. Multiply by 1.043, the weight of 1 fluid oz. of pure water. The result is the weight of the water. Check for errors. Divide the result from Step 2 by 1.043. If the result does not equal the value obtained in Step 2, an error occurred. Repeat the calculations until the results match.

edit: upon review, it would not be wise to use them for watering, in conclusion simply dispose of them normally as any other application would be harmful
