it's not about what makes more sense: what makes more sense is what you use everyday and is natural to you. 40+ C is freaking hot because when you experience it, it's freaking hot. It's about what the entire rest of the world is using as a standard.

    Metric system is best system, no exceptions.

    Anything over 40°C is fuckin' hot, anything under 4°C is fuckin' cold.

    Anything over 31°C on a humid day is torture. As someone without AC, being indoors is the worst. What do you? Play games? Your devices heat up too.

    Are ACs not viable for you? I don't know I could do without one, sounds scary.

    I live in the UK, getting an AC is not a matter to be discussed in polite company. Doing so upsets the queen and brings the Yankees to the door.
