dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

somehow 68°F being pants weather while 72°F is shorts weather makes more sense than interpreting 20°C vs. 22.2°C for the same decision.

why are you picking 20 vs 22.2 and not 21 vs 23 or 19 vs 22? still completely arbitrary. and shorts weather still depends on sunshine and humidity as much as pure temperature, a cloudy, wet 23 degrees is still cold, but a nice sunny 19 can be fine. i don't think anyone can actually feel the difference between 1°C, much less 1°F

On the contrary I think 1C is a perfect temperature increment for meaningful perceived difference. In some applications 0.5C is welcome, but when describing the weather, 22 vs 23 is meaningful.
