      He is a standard. Making him the frame reference. Weren’t you taught that in school? 2 Juans make 1 Carlos and it takes 3 Carloss to make Jose. Which means of course there are 6 Juans in every Jose.

        How many bananas does it take to make a Carlos?

          The Juan measuring system predates this discovery of bananas by giant turtle archaeologist. No one has ever bothered to create a conversion chart. Because giant turtle archaeologists don’t eat bananas. I don’t know why though, you have to ask them.

          Thank you. Carlos should clearly be holding a banana in this pic. You need multiple references when you’re dealing with something particularly large.

        Why you gotta do Jose like that?

          Maybe Jose likes having six Juans. Maybe Jose is polyamorous when it comes to Juans.

          Hey man I can’t be held responsible for the archaic Jose system of measuring. I know it is old and outdated, but is still the system used to measure giant turtle fossils.

            I thought Carlos was the more accepted unit when measuring turtles.

              Carlos is, but Carloss are part of the Jose measuring system. Just that one Carlos is usually about the size of most giant turtles. Oh and it is written like the Roman Numerals. So you count it Juan, JuanCarlos, Carlos, CarlosJuan, CarlosCarlos, CarlosCarlosJuan,JuanJose, Jose, and so on.

              Edit it hard to count in carloss

    A Carlos is greater than/ less than a Smoot?

    We need a lifesize cutout of Carlos. Carlos for scale is the new banana for scale.

    He must be really small or they must have some wild overly-American ideas of how big a car is.

    No! A banana is a standard unit of measure, volume, length, mass. SMH! Carlos is going to have to apply to NIST if he wants to become a standard unit of measure.
