    This is exactly how I feel when my American colleagues discuss the weather in Fahrenheit.

      0: Fuck, it’s cold out there!

      100: Fuck, it’s hot out there!

      If you go somewhere outside this range - leave.

      Fahrenheit is, surprisingly, somewhat intuitive in the very specific case of weather.

      Not that it never goes beyond the extremes of the scale, but very broadly speaking, 0-100 F is your weather range, with 0F being cold as balls and 100F being hot as balls.

      The balls scale of weather temperature is significantly less intuitive.
