A kickass Canadian Indie band. Emily Haines (the lead singer) redefines awesome. Finally, the Canadians made something Americans will love. Randy: "I just bought Metric's newest album. I love it."
Paul: "Yea, they suck! Listen to some good music like Green Day, John Mayer, or Linkin Park!" Randy then proceeds to push Paul's lifeless body into the Hudson. |

A modifier meaning "even more than"
Most commonly used with buttload, assload, or shitload. The modifier 'metric' has been co-opted from the term 'metric ton,' which is 205 pounds more than a 'ton.' So, an 'assload' is a lot, but a 'metric assload' is even more. A pipe broke, and now there's a metric buttload of water in my basement!

Bad in the sense that something has gone awry, or that someone has caused something to go awry; Messed up. Bob - "Hey, did you just hit that guy in the face for no reason?"
Steve - "Yeah, so?" Bob - "That's pretty darn Metric of you." ----------------------- Comparing the Metric and Secondary (Or standard as some call it) measurement systems in America, we find that the majority of people are more familiar with Secondary, and as such 'Metric' is awkward, different, bad, or crazy. In this sense, 'Metric' can be used to describe the attitude or actions of a person, or something else that has happened that was unintended and harmful or unwanted. |
