Freezing water at 0 and boiling water as 100 simplifies things a lot but also doesn't make sense when it comes to things like weather, like, what am I supposed to wear outside when it's 23 degrees?

0°C means that weather starts to be icy and you need to be careful when driving.

20°C is mild warm. 30°C is hot. 100°C is sauna.

this is so true, but the thing the celsiouds won't understand, that the farenheitoids haven't realized, is that the celsius users die (not literally) in heat of about 85 f which for any fahrenheit user is, literally a nice summer day.

EDIT: i'm making a joke about the UK heat waves, since people don't seem to realize that.

It has LAYERS!

People in countries with much much hotter climates than the US use celsius, because most of the rest of the world uses celsius.
