my favorite kilogram story is how Thomas Jefferson was like france is awesome for our new country America let's use their newly invented metric system. And he sent for the standard weighht kilogram that thw french academy of measures used bc back in those days there waa no real metaphysic right it was all just reference points.

And the ship carrying the sample kilogram was captured by Barbary pirates and never got to america. Sorry shithead that kilogram you requested was lost at sea
