That is what I thought. I know the expression 'yardstick' but I did not
think of it as referring to an artefact that anybody used today.

I have never seen a meter or yard stick. I can't imagine that anyone I know
has one. Does anybody here have a yard or meter stick? What are the
circumstances where it is used?
