Big Beef City posted:Yeah great it's dumb we're dumb no one actually can tell what's hot or not who knows because it's impossible Don't listen to all those losers trying to get you to switch to celsius (tiny numbers for tiny minds) You americans need to get ahead of the curve and start using SUPER FAHRENHEIT. it's going to be all the rage. write to your congressman today

Fahrenheit is good for measuring temperatures that people live at. Celsius is good for everything else. Also Fahrenheit is a good word to trick kids in spelling contests.

in Death Valley it gets 5 times hotter in SUPER FAHRENHEIT than in regular old fahrenheit. also if you die there, you will be 5 times deader.

the more bigginest the number, the more hotterer it is, duh. thats why fahrenheit makes more sense. also comes in handy during the winter, when you can say "it was -54, my car wouldn't start and my tits froze off."

We moved my son to college Friday and as we’re driving up I notice some smaller dorms next to his big dorm building. He’s says yeah, that’s for the international students. I’m like, wtf that seems I dunno racist or something. He says no, they are just as nice as the others, just cheaper because they don’t have air conditioning. Apparently some international students don’t want to pay the extra for ac because they’re not used to it. Lol what the hell ever it was like 100 outdoors and 84 even with the ac on in his room. Crazy.

The last few weeks have been cold af and this warm only going to last 3 days maybe so take a cool shower and dry off you'll feel better Also it gets cool at night so use fans and windows at night and keep your blinds and windows drawn in the daytime

ArbitraryC posted:yeah I absolutely think 0 and 100 in C make more sense than 32 and 212 in F, but in terms of practically F is way better and measuring weather on earth imo. You can complain it's arbitrary if you really want to, but C is too, as water freezing and boiling is a pretty arbitrary scale to pick off and causes issues in equations where the idea of a negative temperature is a bit nonsensical, at which point you start using Kelvin which includes absolute zero as a more scientific reference point. Uh you're definitely one of those dweebs.

I feel you OP. A good tip for dealing with harsh heat like 27C is to put shorts on. If you don't own shorts there's this little life-hack I learned one brutal spring in Tasmania - make a cold drink.

To waddup Edmonton goon. The gf and I invested in ac in the spring, and it was worth every penny. I go to other people's houses and I want to die. Though I have to say, losing weight has made the 30° temps slightly more bearable (but I feel like the -30° winters will be worse lol)

I also decided to go camping a couple weeks ago, which was the last time the area was above 30 (and wicked high humidity) but I did enough mushrooms that I couldn't feel the heat which was nice. So I think that if you can't get ac, get mushrooms.

It's been hot, but it hasn't gone above 100 F, so it's not as bad as it could be. The worst is the humidity along with the heat.

Comfortable temperature for humans is around 15-25 degrees C (probably something stupid like 3-250 football fields in Fahrenheit) anything above that is uncomfortable in day to day life. Just because you can tolerate it when you're sitting inside watching fox news and eating out of a jar of mayo with the AC at 20C when it's 37C outside doesn't make you a "Cool" dude. 30C is uncommon at the height of summer here and when it does happen it's usually at 200% humidity and no one has AC because 75% of the year it's cold. 30C is hell without AC or a pool or something.
