They are talking about 55 year olds, but that’s European under their screwy metric system. Does anyone know what 55 metric years are in US years?

I don’t think years are measured metrically.

Just multiply 55 times 12/32, then multiply the result by 32/12. That should be close.

The English system is the screwy one.

IIRC according to common-core math, this is the formula:

Age-in-US-Years = Age-in-Eurotrash-Metric-Years x 9 / 5 + 32

So 55 metric years would be equivalent to 131 US years.

YMMV

Congratulations - I’m actually snickering on that one. Nicely done. (Consider the concept stolen...)
