Do... you actually have anything practical to relate it to at that scale? If you're talking over 1M degrees, it doesn't much matter if it's C, F, Rankine, or whatever. It is fucking hot :P

- onorton 6y agoAlso, I think it relates to the point people arguing for Fahrenheit make that 0C and 100C aren't as relatable since they're related to boiling and freezing points of water compared to 0F and 100F which would be more "human" temperatures. So the joke is that this is one case where it doesn't matter.
