Fahrenheit is superior to Celsius because it’s more specific and I will die on this hill. 71F feels different than 72F and yet they’re both 22C (for example).
Metric is better than imperial, though. Obviously.
Friend: Hey, what’s the temperature?
Me: Like 74°F
Friend: I don’t understand…
Me: Sucks to be you! You require precise temperature units and I follow advice from randos on the internet. See ya! 👋🥴
I mean, I get it that Fahrenheit is stupid, but this is an American publication.

Fahrenheit is fine for temperatures that humans can experience in our environment (and expect to survive, at least for a little while…)
I guess. But having friends from all over the planet, it becomes a pain running conversions just to have a conversation.
I mean if you need to be using precise temperature units just to have a conversation… Maybe find less particular friends?

Or, just, like,
“Pretty warm but I’m not complaining, you?”
You’re the one that brought units into it in your example. Maybe you’re the bad friend?
