I don’t think anyone knows what a C° is
Most every kid who has taken high school science should know what °C is, though
A C degree is an okay degree.
C’s get degrees
I’m doing my best not to prove that right, but I’m proving it right… especially math. I love it, but it does not love me.
Hey… D stands for Diploma.
B stands for “Better than I thought I’d do.”
And A is for Addicted to Adderall
seriously what smooth brain made this meme lol
Hence the meme face below it.

I’m american and I know 10 C isn’t even that cold because it’s above freezing
I live in the American South, and I’m happy to wear shorts outside at 10C (50 F), so long as it’s not windy…
Now, a jacket at 30C (86F)… that’s a bit warm for me…
F = C*(9/5)+32
If you don’t want the ratio, 9/5=1.8
To estimate the temperature conversion, multiply by 2 and add 32… then estimate a touch less… I eyeballed 10C to be 50ish before breaking out the calculator and finding it was 50 on the nose
how is °C written incorrectly twice? it was already correct in the first part of the meme
Meme made by an American kid.
Or Australian. They made it upside-down.
An American kid talking about temperatures the meme itself protests an American can’t know?
Okay, buddy.
We’d be very pissed if we could read.
Celsius = (Fahrenheit - 32) / 1.8but I still can’t comprehend Celsius 🫠
C degrees?
100 degrees? That’s pretty hot out.
Id go as far as saying it would be boiling
I mean, Americans know 0C is the freezing temperature of water and 100C is the boiling temperature of water, so even with that most basic information taught in like, First Grade Science, people can understand the meme.
People wearing shorts in the cold vs people wearing jackets in the heat.
You overestimate the public education system in my state; especially when I was in grade school.
(I thought it was 100°F boiling and 0°F was freezing)
That’d make sense! But instead, Fahrenheit is based around the body temperature of a pig.
I’m curious where you heard that? Obviously a statement like that made me want to know more, but I’m not finding any information about it.
When I lived in Minnesota the shorts came out when we warmed up to even 1C. Yeah I’m American but I’ve lived a couple of years in Europe and I can math so I know what a C is. I still prefer F. But my wife likes D.
I mean, we know what ice and fire mean. And believe it or not, we know where both Canada and Australia are.
Australia is where Mozart is from, so that one is easy!
😁
x*1.8+32 = how you convert to °Freedom. We know how, we just don’t acknowledge your °Communist temperature measurement.
slaps hood Times two plus thirty gets you there when you see the C.
I feel justified wearing shorts at any temperature above freezing. Its 4°C now and I’m sweating in jeans and a t-shirt.
My limit is basically -18C (0F). But I don’t spend any time outside in that state. Parking lot to work entrance. I’ve gone an entire year no long pants.
If all you do is go from house to car to building, then ya, you can get away with that
I mostly wear trousers so the other parents don’t think I’m a freak. Also where I live rarely gets that cold, despite being in the literal arctic (coastal climate). Don’t have to go far inland for it to get cold af though.
I’m sure the neighbors are worried when I’m in shorts and flippy floppies cleaning snow off of the cars, but meh.
Pfffffft of course I know what C is. It’s the third letter of the English alphabet! CC is for needles and CCC is probably boobs or something. And Cs is what allows people go get degrees. (/J)
CC is also metric, so it’s impossible for an American to understand
I mean it’s a ten base system it’s dead easy … You still got all your fingers right?
I use my fingers to count to 12. Dozenal or Death!
Big assumption about a country without universal health care and a storied love of fireworks.
I didn’t assume. I asked :-p
Fair
Damn, you got me.
It’s easy to convert though. (212-32)/100 = 1.8. So you multiply your temperature in C by 1.8, and then add 32, and you have your temperature in Fahrenheit. So if it’s 30C out, (30*1.8) +32 = 86F.
It is, admittedly, easier to convert centimeters to inches; that conversion is exactly 2.54cm/in.
You don’t need to do a conversion, you can just learn them intuitively. 0 is dangerously cold, 10 is cold, 20 is comfortable, 30 is hot, 40 is dangerously hot.
That’s the joke…?
I wouldn’t say that 0C is dangerous cold. For me, that’s more like -20C, and -30C is really quite unpleasant.
Under 20c is cold, 32c is ideal and 42c+ is not.
Whoah there, 20c° is shorts weather, let’s not get carried away. In winter, it’s a comfy setting for the thermostat (speaking from New England). If it were 32c°, I’m sitting inside in air conditioning
20c is pants and jacket time! 32c is the high everyday. It’s just normal and certainly not hot.
30c is the perfect temperature. It’s not hot it’s nice. 40c is fine if you drink water and use shade. It’s like saying 5c is dangerous bc it can kill you if you don’t wear a jacket.
30c + 90% humidity of Brisbane disagrees.
That’s funny because I was thinking Brisbane has perfect weather.
0 is when snow turns to ice, so slipping becomes a thing to be aware of. But more like -5 to -10 degrees since direct sunlight tends to melt it. It’s not really that cold unless you’re sitting naked outside.
2.54cm is easier for me because I do
2.04x + ½x.8 inches?
16.32 + 4 = 20.3212?
24.48 + 6 = 30.4830?
61.20 + 15 = 76.2060?
122.40 + 30 = 152.40I don’t know why, but I find this easier. Maybe because it’s 4x, 2x, and ½ and my brain doesn’t like adding 32 and working in 1.8.
It’s easy to convert though. (Starts talking about mother fucking fractions)
Ok, Buddy.
Then there’s the temperateur, controlling the thermostat in France.
Context is pretty easy. If you didn’t know what the C stood for than I guess…
But we all remember that we have forgotten how to convert F to C without just asking the internet.
