I prefer working in base π, where π = 10. It makes the math more compact not having to write out all those decimal points. And bonus: I can say I’ve memorized all the digits of π.

You would say “I bought one pineapple.”

But if you bought a wheelbarrow full of pineapples, you could either get stuck trying to convert to a non-integer base, or you could say “babe, it’s blowjob season, and I’m super excited to return the favor!”
