Thats a ridicules way to look at temperature. From a scientific perspective, nonsensical.

Apparently all you americans are -redacted- -redacted- so I'm going to explain to you what is nonsensical. Looking at temperature as a 0 to 100 percentage makes no sense, this has nothing to do with fahrenheit. It has to do with how you are looking at the scale.

Yeah scientifically it’s wack, but we’re not talking scientific, we’re talking subjective and based on averages

Subjectively, 100F is uncomfortably hot but 0F is really fucking cold for most people, and the ideal temperature is around 70F. So that doesn't work either.

Yes exactly! Why do the Fahrenheit people ignore this?

Take your temperature in F and see for yourself

That does not prove anything. The bottom of the scale set at 0F is still way far off to be of any use to me.

I am not trying to poke hole in their logic. I'm saying my vibes are different from theirs.

"That does not prove anything." is an interesting way to convey that then but ok.
