What so ever man.. I still think it has more logic in it than what you are talking about.

Also:

Think whatever you want, it doesn't make it true. C and F are both random units of measurement based on random values determined by factors that have nothing to do with logic beyond the fact that one is better at measuring the temperature of water than the other. Or at least that one uses the temperatures at which water freeze and boils as its base values.

Hey Buzzkill, why don't you relax and let people make fun of stuff for the purposes of humor? Unless it is physically painful for you to see hyperbole displayed in graph form, I don't see the point. These boards have enough negativity without you nitpicking the jokes too.

Let's all just use Kelvins and stfu <_<

Did somebody mention Kelvins?

...water is not an element.
I'm just going to stop there.

2 things.

1) Celsius uses Water as the base form of measurement because it is the most common construct used in all currently known forms of life.

2.) Base 10 forms of measurements meet the global mathematics standard that is shared even in US culture.

Regardless of what does and does not use which form, there is no point, in this stage of development of our global civilization, for us to be using multiple standards of description. Not in something as basic as math and measurement.

And yes, it was funny. US is the sometimes funny, sometimes drunken, sadly self-absorbed cousin of the world. This is speaking as a proud citizen of it. It's not bad that we're made light of. Heck, we do it to other countries all the time too.

We tolerate it better than some countries, thankfully. I hope we can transition over to metric faster than we have been.

lol 0 C makes much more sense than 0 F. 0 Celcius is the temperature at which water freezes. But a good ol Canadian winter has one temp they can both agree on -40.
