yeah no shit, but think of it this way, if you were put into a place that was 100f, you would go "damn this bitch hot out here" and if you were put into a place that was 0f you would go "damn this joint cold as fuck fr"
Stop thinking in celsius.
why would i stop? there's only one place in the world that uses another scale, and it's dangerous for me to even travel there.
because we're not talking about celsius? We're talking about fahrenheit?
This is like pulling up to a car meet in a semi truck, and being really confused when nobody thinks your ride is sick.
the parent post was literally about Fahrenheit vs Celsius.
it was literally about fahrenheit*
Specifically, it was about how in fahrenheit we can refer to really hot temperatures as "OVER 100F"
but it was also a shitpost, like this post, so we probably shouldn't care about it this much lmao
i am referring the the post i responded to.
yeah, that was my post.
What if it was 99f? Or 1f? Would your scientific "damn this bitch hot out here" change to something else?
no? Because it's not entirely hinged around the temperature being one specific number???
Do you think the human body is a perfectly accurate thermometer?
