standard system.

A very old system of measurement which is used by Britain and the U.S.
These are the basic and not so basic measurements of length in order.

barleycorn (570,240 in a lea.)
inch (3 bc.)
hand (4 in.)
foot (3 hd.)
yard (3 ft.)
fathom (2 yrd.)
furlong (110 fm.)
mile (16 fur.)
league (3 mi)

Some people insist that a rod (don't let your mind stray) is part of the standard, but, since it doesn't multiply like the others (a rod is 16.5 feet), I wouldn't include it.
Americans and Brits use the standard system because we want to be different from the rest of the world — were not some sort of brain-washed, fluoride-addicted zombie — we are indies! (My apologies to anyone who has no idea what I just wrote)

Russian Standard

High quality kerosene. Useful for aspiring fire-eaters other classes of circus performers.
When Jiminy stole a bottle of Russian standard from the Liquor Bureau he knew that he would be able to make great friends at the circus. As Mam had advised him, Carnies would respect his generosity and with practice might teach him the long standing carny art of hoops, dragon breath swallowing, cannonballing, and spectacling.

Bud Standard

The actual original Budweiser beer. Too many little guys have overtaken the beer culture with the terms 'Bud Heavy' or Bud Diesel'.

No, it is Bud Standard. The standard version of Budweiser, and how it was supposed to always be.

Fuck Bud Light and the people who drink it.
"Dude you're drinking Bud Heavies tonight? Nice."

"No faggot, I'm drinking a Bud Standard. Stop ruining the King of Beers by revealing how much of a puss cake you are."
