I think you can find a middle ground between “I assume they’d come and politely discuss it” and “I think constantly whether my every single minor action can offend someone”.
You still occasionally see people talk about their weight in stone, but many just use kilos now, anecdotally.
In my experience, if you’re looking to lose a bit of flab for the summer, you’d say you want to lose six pound to half a stone (which is 7lb) or whatever, but if you go the gym regularly and keep an extremely keen eye on your weight, or if you like to think you do, you use kilos. As a rule, you’d use imperial for eyeballing or for measuring things with a bit of play, but you’d use metric if you need precision.

I’ve just looked it up, and it seems to just come from a Reddit post where they explain how they’ve worked it out, but in their working out they’ve triple-counted the N-shaped faces.
The sources are anyone who’s paying any fucking attention.
Yeah after writing it I sort of realised I was pointing out the joke, but we’re here now.
Not many situations where you can use the phrase “I’ve often been born”.
I think I’ve met like four people in my life who wouldn’t get this joke.
Hier, Archie! (flauwe woordspeling, excuses)
Recipe? You make soup, you chuck it on a butty, bish bash bosh.
They’re Czech. The name even has a little thing on the S, officially.
