A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

How? Fahrenheit scale is totally incomprehensible. Celsius at least is using a rational point for 0 (=where water freezes) and same scale as Kelvin.
Farenheit is set up such that temperatures between 0 and 100 convey the subjective feel. 0F is really cold, 100F is really hot. Obviously cold and hot feel is subjective, but what could be more human than subjectivity?
Fahrenheit has nearly double the resolution of Celsius.
That is a weird argument. TBH there are only like six ACTUAL temperatures: fucking hot, hot, warm, cool, cold, fuckin' cold. Everything else is paperwork and doesn't really inform your day to day. The difference between say 30 and 29C is maybe undoing a button on your shirt.
