Fahrenheit measures how people feel, Celsius measures how water feels.
Kelvin measures how atoms feel.

No, it’s not. I’m people and I don’t feel like Fahrenheit. Lower than 10°C is cold, lower than 0°C is freezing (quite literally) and warmer than 30°C is too hot. See? Easy to remember numbers. Almost as if people feel numbers they’re used to.

Why do people “feel” 80, though

  Because they are accustomed to Fahrenheit. I have no idea how hot/cold 80F is, apart from knowing it’s colder than human body temperature, and hotter than inside temperature, but that’s just from knowing those numbers in Fahrenheit, via the internet. I have no relation to them, it’s like a foreign currency, know what I mean?

    Oh, I know what you mean. I’m sick to death of this debate, haha.
