As far as I remember it's only about 5 countries (and some colonies) that uses Fahrenheit.

Anything above 40 feels like you're sticking your body into an oven

Thank god I was inside at work all day 10AM to 6PM, got to work in the cool aircon rather than boil in my unit with its ineffective aircon. Apparently it reached 40c in my area.

Worst thing though was when I left work at 6PM. I stepped out of the building and the heat (was still hovering above 30c or so) just hit me. I was working in <18c all day, and first thing I do is exclaim 'holy fuck' infront of customers walking in or out of the store. Took my name badge off and ran to my car.

Through sheer dint, I can stand barefoot on hot gravel in the midday sun at 40 plus degrees and not give a fuck about the heat. :v:[/QUOTE]

i have less issue with heat ever since staying at furnace creek for a couple of days. it was something like 54C when we were there. i had to wear shades even once the sun had down because the wind was so hot it stung your eyes. it was like having someone following you around blowing a hairdryer in your face

And as a result Victoria has bushfires fucking everywhere. There was an emergency warning for my town as there was an out of control bushfire, thankfully it was contained.

America, Bahamas, Belize, Cayman Islands and Palau are the only countries to officially use it still.

And some older people in the UK and Canada use it still.

Dumb jokes are dumb regardless of how much people tend to dogpile on someone.

I've somehow managed to avoid the heat this year. I was in Melbourne until Monday, then came back to Perth when it cooled down.

I don't get why they didn't halt it earlier, it would've been far too hot to play in, I struggle going outside in those temperatures.
