werd... but its what we're stuck with here in the States. I use metric as often as I can, but there's plenty of times where I wish I could, but simply can't.

edit: if you do it enough you can convert things over pretty easily in your head if you're decent with math. 1000g = 1 kg = 2.2 lbs. So an 800g snake is roughly 1.75lb. My phone says 1.76. Throw me a number and I bet I can get close enough for most people's purposes.
