If those Americans could read they’d be very upset.
I’d take offense if I could; but you’re right… I think… idk, I can’t think. I’m not upset, you’re upset!
What’s an up set?
For the other Americans that came into the thread hoping to see a conversion:
- 10c = 50f
- 30c = 86f
Edit: I’d like to note that 10c is a very reasonable temperature for shorts. I’m a Minnesotan (basically Canada lite (please annex us)), people start raising eyebrows at around 0C
F = C * 1.8 + 32
Just want to leave this here
Oh come on. Now you expect us to learn math too??
And if you want to do the math fast and just get close enough, you can just do “double it and add 30”.
its true, legs are immune to cold. shorts and a jacket is a reasonable outfit

Yeh 0C was exactly what I thought and then you mentioned it.
30 is hot 20 is nice 10 is cold 0 is ice
Double Celsius and add 30. It’ll get you close enough for environment temps.
10*2 is 20, plus 30 = 50.
(10°C × 9/5) + 32 = 50°F
30 doubled is 60, plus 30 is 90.
(30°C × 9/5) + 32 = 86°F
10°C is mild af. Who tf doesn’t wear shorts when it’s 50F?
If you want to sound more metal, tell people how cold it is in celsius. Was it kinda cold or was it in the negatives?
I find it easier to just remember the approximate table.
0C = 30F
10C = 50F
20C = 70F
30C = 90F
C° or °C bud?
Most kids don’t get degrees.
Heyooo!
Here’s a rough C° primer for Americans
0° or below, fucking cold
1° - 10° cold
11° - 20° cool
21° - 30° warm
31° - 40° hot
41° or above - Jesus Christ I’m on fire!
As for Fahrenheit for the rest of the world, on a scale from 0 to 100, how hot is it? Assume anything below zero is really fucking cold, and anything above 100 is really fucking hot.
-10° - -1° very cold
0° Water freezes
1° - 5° Cold
6° - 10° cool
11° - 16° warm
17° - 25° hot
26° - 30 very hot

26 very hot? It was 25 the other day in winter here. (Melbourne)
That’s the thing, you live in hell’s microwave.
microwave
Correction: smelting furnace
Most of the US and Canada would be using AC at that temp. Since the example was poised for Americans and not those living in bizzaro world.
On the other hand, I was wearing a t-shirt still the other day at hotham… And somehow it feels colder now
Yup. Where I live we have seen down to -20F (during that time texas almost lost their power grid) and up to 115F.
Its currently 110F. Aka, hot.
Or, -28c to 46C. Currently 43C. And 40% humidity. Feels horrible.
I was in Dubai earlier this year and the heat index was 53⁰C. Felt like I was being baked alive.
I get metric for everything else, but °F is the better system for everyday/non scientific use. I will die on this hill.
That’s because Fahrenheit is % of hot, based on what we feel. Therefore, °F is better for everyday use.
The one you use is the better system. I want to know whether I should bring a sweater. The system is arbitrary.
In what way is 0F helpful at all?
Paraphrasing an old meme:
Fahrenheit - how hot humans feel
Celsius - how hot water feels
Kelvin - how hot atoms feelWhat about Rankine?
Pretentious freedom-loving atoms
Me, an American, laughs in PC temperatures always being in C
I don’t know if they stopped, but American kids at least used to be taught both Celsius and Fahrenheit. At least in some parts anyway. I was taught both as a kid, with my school largely banning the use of Fahrenheit by staff on campus even, for instance.
I just use
30°C is hot, 20°C is nice 10°C is cold, 0°C is ice.
Obviously that won’t apply everywhere, but in milder climates it works pretty good.
More like 30° I’m melted into the pavement, 20° warm but good, 10° is near perfect, 0° starts getting cols, -10° put on a jacket, -20° and below put on a good jacket.
100°C is steam
and 30C° is a typo
It actually depends on humidity and movement of wind as well as tempreture
Shit use of the meme bro
Why does the US live rent free in so many European’s heads all the time?
I’d assume because the internet is 90% catered to american’s.
Because each time we look for some English content, they use some dumb fantasy metrics based on the size fo the feet of a king for some reason, and we need to look up a converter to change it to a metric used in 195 different countries.
You mean x football fields.
Coincidentally both “football fields” are pretty close in length.
I measure in freedom units brother!
Also how did feet/metric get brought up, that’s not even remotely relevant, tf lol.
It’s really not hard to convert.
Then why don’t you Just switch
Money.
Because it’s a massive waste of money for little to no benefit, and barely actually comes up because unit conversion is trivial and is done constantly regardless of overall unit system.
Armchair unit system fanatics make it out to be such a bigger deal than it is. Whether im working in metric or standard I’m doing several to several dozen dimensional analyses anyway, normally with industry specific units. Which again, exist in both standard and si.
I didn’t know Canada and Australia were in Europe
I love that the meme is about Canada, Australia, and the US(ish), yet it’s the Europeans that get called out by this guy. Who’s living rent free in whose head? ;)
Am I wrong lol
I can understand canadians wearing shorts on a 10° day, Aussies sometimes do the same. But what Australian wears a jacket on a 30°C day???
That’s an exaggeration and regionally specific NSW and QLD it’s common for jumpers and jackets to come out on mid to high 20s. In Tasmania and Victoria shorts in 10C is not uncommon.
Also light jackets and long sleeve shirts are not uncommon in summer especially if working outside. Because the higher UV levels are a real killer (literally). Even with sun screen you can feel the burn very quickly.
I live in NSW and I’ve seen people wearing shorts in winter but nobody with a jacket if it’s 30. Long sleeved shirts for workers, yes sometimes. Umbrellas, yes, too. I didn’t know jackets were a thing for hot QLD days.
The sun is hot and stings as you say though, granted
