You made it sound so nice I set my thermostat at 530 too. The solder melted out of my TV and the magazines on the coffee table spontaneously ignited. On the plus side I can cook a pizza in the living room now instead of getting up to go to the kitchen.
It’s like people making these memes don’t understand that intuition is learned. One is not universally more intuitive than the other
Paid off by big nuance. We don’t need that shit here. Everything is black/white good/bad.
This is objectively the best comment ever made on any post on the internet!🏅
I bet you prefer Kelvin.
Not at all. I find Celsius much more intuitive but I’m not trying to argue that that is universally true.
You’re right, Rankine is clearly the best.
(Anyone actually know what Rankine even is outside something ddg told me exists?)
Mechanical engineer from a power plant here. Rankine is the best, can confirm. Room temp is like 530 degrees. Now that makes sense.
God I love it when I walk inside when its hot and the temperature is just under 530. The best feeling ever.

I think the point of the meme is that it’s a silly premise, and few people actually believe things like this
Shhhhhh
Isn’t being intuitive the whole point of metric?
Not really. Easy conversion is the whole point. One litre of water weighs one kilogram (depending on temperature) and fits into a 10x10x10 cm cube.
Compare that with: one quart of water weighs 2.086 pounds and fits into a 3.86 × 3.86 × 3.86 inch cube.
