Who bundles up in 68F? It's literally room temperature

Also it's useful in cooking because it's an actual, useful scale. You know when it's 90C it's about to be boiling, just makes no sense why you gotta memorize 212F. Random number and all

Never said "bundling up". But that 10 degree range is so big as to be useless. 68 is not in the same category as 86.

You know when it’s 90C it’s about to be boiling, just makes no sense why you gotta memorize 212F.

What? How often are you putting thermometers in whatever it is you're boiling? You just heat it until it boils. It doesn't matter what the number is.

Thank you for making sense lol. Who's putting a meat thermometer in water to make sure it's boiling? It's boiling when it's boiling.

i dunno, 68F on a cloudy windy day isn't as pleasant as 68F and sunny.

But then again I'm from Ohio and I won't bother to put on so much as a vest until it hits 50s
