    You mean other than the fact only a tiny proportion of people in the world use Fahrenheit?

      It didn’t say which people. Also, I’m from South East Asia and have used Fahrenheit my entire life as a means to measure body temperature using mercury thermometers during fever time. It’s so much easier to say whether a fever is above 100 or not and then how much above 100.

      So people do feel in Fahrenheit. A fuck ton of them do.

      Yes, I know the meme is about the weather but… take a chill pill and look at your prejudices.

        It also closely matches the weather experience in many places. Where I live 0 F is about the coldest it ever gets and 100 F is about the hottest it ever gets. I know there are places that get a little hotter or colder, but we have humidity here which prevents it from getting hotter, and this region just doesn’t get colder. It’s a 0-100 scale of human experience.

        It’s tiny enough to be an issue for the meme…
