    it’s not about what makes more sense: what makes more sense is what you use everyday and is natural to you. 40+ C is freaking hot because when you experience it, it’s freaking hot. It’s about what the entire rest of the world is using as a standard.

      Metric system is best system, no exceptions.

      Anything over 40°C is fuckin’ hot, anything under 4°C is fuckin’ cold.

        Anything over 31°C on a humid day is torture. As someone without AC, being indoors is the worst. What do you? Play games? Your devices heat up too.

          My PC kept my room warm all winter, I now dread the incoming sun. Thank God for AC. Sorry for your loss there sir.

          Thankfully I am, but I was born and raised on the coast, so I know the pain of a 44°C day at close to 100% humidity.

      honestly in most of europe even thirty degrees is fucking hot, here in the nordics 25°C is considered too hot
