1st time i watched a baking recipe in YouTube: Woman says, now you bake at 350 degrees. And i was, what kind of oven has she? Mine goes only up to 250… 😂
1000+: Melts metal, like go wild, that’s about where off the chart starts
👍
-20: Real cold
0: Water freezes, real useful if you need to know that one in your daily life and “32” is too hard to remember
30: Real hot (for some fucking reason)
90: Low bake
150: Medium bake
230: High bake
600+: Melts metal
😢
It’s like the exact opposite of distance units. Normally you look at the metric ones and say “thank god! It just makes sense. It’s all tens and it’s logical” and then the imperial is all wacky numbers.
With Fahrenheit you can say, “How is it outside?” “50s” / “60s” / “70s” / “80s” and it’s instantly a comprehensible answer. Maybe “low 70s” “mid 70s” if you want to be precise and you mean at an exact particular time of day. Meanwhile, the Celsius weather channels are over here putting decimals in their temperature predictions because the units are too unwieldy to even tell people what temperature it’s going to be if they have perfect integer precision. Of course, three significant digits is way too many, so they’re half making up nonsense for the one-tenths place, but they have to do it anyway. Why do they have to? Because they’re using Celsius, like a bunch of chumps.
I’ll just set my oven to “real hot times four” then.

Celsius is so unintuitive. And I just don’t get Fahrenheit…
I think Delisle degrees makes more sense
Anyways it is 180 degrees outside. When it goes all the way to 112 degrees I will definitely wear shorts.
176: real cold
93: real hot
10: low bake
-115: Medium bake
… Etc
The rest just follow the intuitive logic.
See now you’re talking sense
