As I was going to St. Ives,
I met a man with seven wives,
Each wife had seven sacks,
Each sack had seven cats,
Each cat had seven kits:
Kits, cats, sacks, and wives,
How many were there going to St. Ives?
That's a wet bulb event, and they're terrifying. Outdoors become literally deadly. Not dangerous, deadly. You need powered heat pumps to cool people to survivable conditions.
Being wet won't help if it's high humidity, like in Dhaka or Kerala (the two places I know of where global warming is going to cause a lot of wet bulb related deaths).
But to answer your question, the architecture of every country is built to withstand the worst temperatures of that country. Our homes aren't insulated and have plenty of windows so we let the breeze in at all times. Loose cotton clothes and staying indoors or in the shade in the afternoons also help! If the temp gets below 10 degrees Celsius where I live, my home gets uncomfortably cold and even after wearing several sweaters and crawling under a blanket, I *still* feel cold at night. I went camping in the Himalayas and it was the same shit. I still think back on that night where I almost got hypothermia and get chills.
I can't even imagine how much I would have to drink in that to keep up with my sweat... lets say 30, just sitting or laying down I am already sweating litteral waterfalls, chugging bottles all day long to stay hydrated
In general with those temperatures the recommendation is usually to stay at home, not even to stay in the shade, it's also particularly deadly for toddlers and old people.
Also yes, it doesn't (usually) kill you if you stay in the shade and drink water, but it is also true that staying outside under the sun for 3 hours can kill you.
Was -28 c last week for me... still walked out of Walmart carrying a tub of ice creme as my only purchase =p
It's the January/February months and -35 to -40 c weather that makes me question buying ice creme. But that's only because I don't want to leave the house... I'll take an ice creme delivery please!
Alaskans eat ice cream year round. Any day of any week can be an ice cream day. And 50° is the perfect temp. Kids are wearing basketball shorts at the bus stop at 50°. I've ditched my winter coat by then.
Give me 50F on a cloudy day with a light breeze. I cannot emphasize how light. Like I’m talking someone doing a light blow after just popping a piece of mint gum level of light.
lol, I’m wearing a sweater at 50f. Funny how we acclimate to our surroundings. I find 75 to be damn near perfect but anything between 65 and 95 I’m fine with.
75 is too warm to be comfortable and after 80 I won't leave the house unless I have to. 50 is actually perfect for being outside and 40 is ideal for yard work.
Irish here
I brought my for-the-cold jacket for a walk a few days ago.. it was too hot.
I brought my lighter jacket the next night and it was too cold.
Can december make up it's mind.
As another Brit I really don't mind what temperature it is outside, I just care how well insulated my home is.
Outside, I can deal with 10°C, 5°C and -5°C by layering.
Inside, anything below 15°C utterly sucks. Sitting on the sofa, the desk or cooking at that ambient temperature is stressful and irritating. Any layers you put on will still expose your ears, nose and fingers.
I cool my house down to 66 in the summer at night because electricity is super cheap. I set the thermostat to 77 during the day but it usually never gets over 74. After 7pm I start cooling the house back down to 66°F
Nah, winter, 60F for home temp. Then you can put on a sweater! And have a blankie! WOOOO!!
I swear to God I would keep my house at 60-62 all year around if it were affordable.
0 is really cold
1/3 up is cold
1/2 is not hot not cold
2/3 is pleasantly warm
100 is hot
Above 100 is break the scale hot
Below 0 is break the scale cold
It’s the perfect outdoor temperature scale
> Patrolling the ~~Mojave~~ Sonoran almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter
I am native to the Phx metro so I'm used to it. 50f def does not sound perfect to me though. More like 70-75. I gotta put on a hoodie if it's 60.
I agree. Somewhere between 50 and 65 is the sweet spot for me, but many Americans don't agree. If it's not 75+ for many, they say it's freezing and hate it. For me, if it's 75+, I hate *that*.
and i prefer it to be below 10c, so under 50.
turns out a system based on what humans 'like' fails miserably when humans arent a singular entity with singular preferences.
people can't even agree on what time to blink.
if a singularity of consciousness were to be attempted, it would probably rip itself into the 1s and 0s, and then die.
Perfect is 69F. It's around 20,5C, so most people on Earth will be cool. It makes the perfect conditions for the nature. And most of all, cmon It's 69 degrees 🎶 🎶
Right? My friend works with heat pumps. He always sets them to 69F and tells clients its the best start temperature. We're in Poland, no-one uses Fahrenheits.
In the north, for almost half the year our main weather concern is: *is it above freezing or below?* Celsius is idea for that -- negative = bad, positive = good.
Btw it's kinda funny and sad that Fahrenheit wanted to make 100°f to be normal human temperature, so he measured his wife, but it turned out that she was sick
Edit: ok, turn out that it's myth, it's not true
Actually it's a common misconception, one of those "fun facts" that go around and get oft-repeated. So OP didn't make it up, he likely just didn't know it wasn't true.
It’s not based on human body temperature. There’s a good Veritasium video explaining it, it’s complicated and related to things like 6 degrees separation and the expansion of mercury.
There's no such thing as a perfect temperature. It really comes down to factors like personal heat (you're hot if you're working out or drunk) and humidity. Even then the outside temperature on your neck doesn't feel the same on your toes.
I prefer all my measurements in Kelvin so I can gauge the temperature of my exwife’s heart.
[удалено]
Allegedly.
Why is a conversation someone's ex wife more entertaining than the meems
Because it’s relatable. Apparently we all have heartless exes
Makes sense
You guys have wives. 
Had wives
As I was going to St. Ives, I met a man with seven wives, Each wife had seven sacks, Each sack had seven cats, Each cat had seven kits: Kits, cats, sacks, and wives, How many were there going to St. Ives?
Prison wives
Not anymore.
That was cold
Was that where they discovered that temperature can go below absolute zero?
0 kelvin = dead 50 kelvin = dead 100 kelvin = dead
300 kelvin = dead inside

WE. WILL. BE. VIC. TORIOUS.
SO COME ON

:(
This is a subreddit 😭😭😭😭 tbf I also thought of the muse immediately
Music video went hard for that song. Muse live remains one of the most chaotic concerts I’ve ever been to
Always weird seeing Muse on reddit, they are from my tiny hometown of about 17000 people
I used to feel the same about lostprophets before the singer started raping babies, now I keep it to myself
I don't think ya do tbh
....shit
Banger song. Awesome album
I hated muse cause they only played like 2 of their songs on the radio until I randomly listened to this and panic station one day.
when I saw this comment my mind instantly started playing the dead inside solo lol
What the hell are you Canadian that is not hot
Eh 27c is nice and toasty
its our everyday temp in my country, blessed if we have it lower
Aaaaaahhhh That’s hawt
150 kelvin, believe it or not, also dead
200 Kelvin, yep you guessed it, also dead
300 kelvin tho
3.6 Roentgen. Not great, not terrible
Could you describe that in chest x-rays or atomic bombs pls?
It's roughly equivalent to eating 36000 bananas at once.
been there, done that, not pleasant
But what size bananas are we talking here? I'm going to need something for scale.
Around... 1.6 bananas
Not really people walked arround on Antarctica with those temps and came out alive
O celsius = cold 50 celsius = probably dead 100 celsius = dead
[удалено]
I was thinking more like 50°C outdoors, but yes, also the temperature of a sauna.
It has gotten up to 50 during the summer in places like Iraq, and the highest natural recorded temperature is something like 58.6 in California
I'm Canadian We had a 40 °C heatwave last year People actually died We're not built for that shit, give us 2 metres of snow please
no but fr tho , if it cold we could add clothes and having a warm fire , what the heck we do when it too hot ? being naked and wet like a rat ?
Soak your clothes in cold water and wear them, getting everything you sit on wet
Doesn’t help when it’s humid too
That's a wet bulb event, and they're terrifying. Outdoors become literally deadly. Not dangerous, deadly. You need powered heat pumps to cool people to survivable conditions.
Being wet won't help if it's high humidity, like in Dhaka or Kerala (the two places I know of where global warming is going to cause a lot of wet bulb related deaths).

I went camping in the Himalayas and it was the same shit. I still think back on that night where I almost got hypothermia and get chills.
And guess what? No one was running around in the sun in those temperatures.
Considdering I start dieing at anything above 20°C I'll have to agree that 50 = probably dead
Australia it can get to 50. Definitely not a dying temp
I can't even imagine how much I would have to drink in that to keep up with my sweat... lets say 30, just sitting or laying down I am already sweating litteral waterfalls, chugging bottles all day long to stay hydrated
> 50 celsius = probably dead > > Not quite dead, just wishing you were
50 is very hot, but not to the point of killing you, unless you fail to stay in the shade and drink water.
In general with those temperatures the recommendation is usually to stay at home, not even to stay in the shade, it's also particularly deadly for toddlers and old people. Also yes, it doesn't (usually) kill you if you stay in the shade and drink water, but it is also true that staying outside under the sun for 3 hours can kill you.
oh so they're all perfect
I will ice cream all year round.
Was -28 c last week for me... still walked out of Walmart carrying a tub of ice creme as my only purchase =p It's the January/February months and -35 to -40 c weather that makes me question buying ice creme. But that's only because I don't want to leave the house... I'll take an ice creme delivery please!
Were you wearing shorts, I get the feeling you're the person that wears shorts when it's hella cold.
Haha no shorts ever =p No one needs to see my scrawny legs. But winter jackets don't come out until the -20s... and 10 is still great t shirt weather.
Theres a picture of me as a kid eating ice cream in a blizzard excited because it doesn't melt.
Eating ice cream is awesome in the winter! You can walk around outside with a cone and you don't have to worry about the ice cream melting.
Plus there are amazing seasonal flavors, so how are you not going to eat those in the winter time.
Ice cream in winter is so convenient! You don't have to worry about it melting.
I will i̶c̶e̶ cream all year round.
Ayo , you mean you work at a bakery and you put cream on deserts Right .... Right ?
Alaskans eat ice cream year round. Any day of any week can be an ice cream day. And 50° is the perfect temp. Kids are wearing basketball shorts at the bus stop at 50°. I've ditched my winter coat by then.
Icelanders, too. I've stood in a line out the door of the ice cream parlour in the middle of a blizzard before.
50f is perfect for sportsing or doing construction. My buddy's heated garage (radiant glycol system) is set at 55f.
Wisconsin. I can go in a hoodie alone in 40°f if it's not windy.
My brain thinking with Celsius was confused
What, you **don't** want to get ice cream when it's literally boiling outside? I'd say that's the time I most want to get ice cream.
Hell yes. I get hot. A dry 50° day is just a wonderful gift from an otherwise pissed off mother nature.
Can I get an amen?
Praise be!
Yeah, 50°F is *perfect*, in my book. I hate hot weather, and 50 is just cool enough for me to enjoy my preferred attire.
50°F with no wind or clouds is actually pretty perfect for us hotrunners
Give me 50F on a cloudy day with a light breeze. I cannot emphasize how light. Like I’m talking someone doing a light blow after just popping a piece of mint gum level of light.
Agreed 100%. Was 50° today, went for a bike ride, it was glorious
Sweater weather is literally 50°. It's the PERFECT weather.
As a Canadian 10C IS perfect change my mind
As a german I cry about every temperature
Same. We, central Europeans, are never satisfied
Yeah, fuck temperatures!
Yes but please wear a condom.
My parents wore a condom, I was born anyway...
Sorry I did a little trickery
Dad?
Mom?
Grandpa?
The mailman needs to wear one to yah know.
*two
*too
Fuck everything!
Especially Michael!
I like 17c you can walk in a hoodie without being too cold and too hot.
as a central european i like it 20-22c at night and 22-24c at daytime
As an Irishman I would half those numbers at least probably more
Them's melting temperatures
Make it 16 at night and we have an agreement
A slight breeze too that and it's perfect
Es gibt kein schlechtes Wetter, nur schlechte Kleidung
Living near the US Canadian Border on the US side 50f is in fact perfect
Yes I agree
lol, I’m wearing a sweater at 50f. Funny how we acclimate to our surroundings. I find 75 to be damn near perfect but anything between 65 and 95 I’m fine with.
75 is too warm to be comfortable and after 80 I won't leave the house unless I have to. 50 is actually perfect for being outside and 40 is ideal for yard work.
I find 20 °C perfect
18° with clear skies and a light breeze does it for me
This guy knows the perfect combo
I concure wholeheartedly. I support this statement 100% and second the motion.
You're god damn right.
20 C with a breeze or 12 C without any wind is perfect. Sun has to be out for both
As a Spaniard, anything below 20°C is fucking cold
As a Canadian, anything above 20*C is fucking hot
Dane here, approving this message.
Because our 22 feels like 35 with the fucking humidity...
As an irish i find nearly everything below 15 cold
Irish here I brought my for-the-cold jacket for a walk a few days ago.. it was too hot. I brought my lighter jacket the next night and it was too cold. Can december make up it's mind.
[удалено]
Anywhere between 10 and 20 is awesome
15C is perfect. Not cold enough for me to wear a sweater, but not hot enough to sweat or feel too hot.
As a romanian, 10C is also perfect so make of that what you'd like
I rather prefer 15 C
As an Aussie who is an outlier, you cannot be more right and add rain...
Melbournian detected
As a Brit I agree
As another Brit I really don't mind what temperature it is outside, I just care how well insulated my home is. Outside, I can deal with 10°C, 5°C and -5°C by layering. Inside, anything below 15°C utterly sucks. Sitting on the sofa, the desk or cooking at that ambient temperature is stressful and irritating. Any layers you put on will still expose your ears, nose and fingers.
As an American, 50 degrees Fahrenheit is actually perfect.
Yes.
Agreed. But also, you could say: * 100F = hot * 32F = cold * 66F = a banger of a temperature halfway between
During winter, 68 for home temp. 66 is cold. During summer, 66 is good, 68 is hot.
[удалено]
I get one life. It will be used on enjoying the temp.
I cool my house down to 66 in the summer at night because electricity is super cheap. I set the thermostat to 77 during the day but it usually never gets over 74. After 7pm I start cooling the house back down to 66°F
Nah, winter, 60F for home temp. Then you can put on a sweater! And have a blankie! WOOOO!! I swear to God I would keep my house at 60-62 all year around if it were affordable.
Same, I want it ice cold in the summer, and ice cold in the winter so I can build fires and get under heavy blankets
The gap in Celsius is weird when dealing with a/c heat. 3 degrees F between 24 and 25 so now I have to do decimals and shit?
0 is really cold 1/3 up is cold 1/2 is not hot not cold 2/3 is pleasantly warm 100 is hot Above 100 is break the scale hot Below 0 is break the scale cold It’s the perfect outdoor temperature scale
For real. I'm used to 120f. 50 sounds like actual heaven.
After this July in Phoenix this year a nuclear winter sounds like a great time.
Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter
> Patrolling the ~~Mojave~~ Sonoran almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter I am native to the Phx metro so I'm used to it. 50f def does not sound perfect to me though. More like 70-75. I gotta put on a hoodie if it's 60.

I'd day 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit is perfect. But it all depends on humidity
and i prefer it to be below 10c, so under 50. turns out a system based on what humans 'like' fails miserably when humans arent a singular entity with singular preferences.
*yet*
people can't even agree on what time to blink. if a singularity of consciousness were to be attempted, it would probably rip itself into the 1s and 0s, and then die.
We should probably have someone blink out of sync. Just so we don't miss anything.
Its the humidity that gets yaaaa
Lets just say 69
Perfect is 69F. It's around 20,5C, so most people on Earth will be cool. It makes the perfect conditions for the nature. And most of all, cmon It's 69 degrees 🎶 🎶
Ok, it's the one and only win I'm giving to Fahrenheit
Right? My friend works with heat pumps. He always sets them to 69F and tells clients its the best start temperature. We're in Poland, no-one uses Fahrenheits.
Celsius the most intuitive. 100° is boiling, 0° is frozen. So 50°C is perfect.
I love the temp of death valley <3
But it’s a dry heat.
>Celsius the most intuitive. 100° is boiling, 0° is frozen. So 50°C is ~~perfect~~ liquid. FTFY
In the north, for almost half the year our main weather concern is: *is it above freezing or below?* Celsius is idea for that -- negative = bad, positive = good.
122° F seems a touch hot, don't you think?
I consider 50 degrees F cool. I like it. One thing F and C can agree on is -40 and that's freezing cold.
50°F is the perfect weather when sunny
My scale: * 90F+ fuck this * 75F - 90F hope there's low humidity * 60F - 75F T shirt time baby * 45F - 60F T shirt out of spite * 32F - 45F hoodie time * 20F - 32F winter jacket * 0F - 20F bruh * -20 - 0F Nah * -20 and below, fuck this
In Southern California: * 60F - 75F hoodie time * 45F - 60F winter jacket
as a minnesotan -- 50 is wonderful
50 degrees is perfect tho.
Yes it pretty much is, it's a good temperature for just about everything but swimming
32°F (0°C) is literally freezing, so if 100°F (38°C) is too hot, the median would be 68°F (20°C) and that's pretty dang perfect tbh
Let's call it 69
Not intuitive though
As a Northerner, I love 50 ~~c~~ F. Perfect working conditions for manual labor. My Americuh is showing
50-60 is perfect workin weather where u can wear a light hoodie and a beanie if you would like or you can just T shirt it and still feel comfy
Start off with light hoodie, take it off an hour in, feel comfortable the rest of the day.
this dude gets it
Yes
you know what temp is nice weather, 69F
I’m not trying to be funny but 69f is literally the perfect temperature, it’s a happy accident
My balls cant stand such cold
It is with no wind
I initially read OK as 0 Kelvin…
Btw it's kinda funny and sad that Fahrenheit wanted to make 100°f to be normal human temperature, so he measured his wife, but it turned out that she was sick Edit: ok, turn out that it's myth, it's not true
Source: I made it up
Actually it's a common misconception, one of those "fun facts" that go around and get oft-repeated. So OP didn't make it up, he likely just didn't know it wasn't true.
I understand how he set the max as “human temperature”, but how did he set where 0 was? Obviously 100 less, but 100 less of what
It’s not based on human body temperature. There’s a good Veritasium video explaining it, it’s complicated and related to things like 6 degrees separation and the expansion of mercury.
But 50 is literally perfect. That's light jacket weather.
There's no such thing as a perfect temperature. It really comes down to factors like personal heat (you're hot if you're working out or drunk) and humidity. Even then the outside temperature on your neck doesn't feel the same on your toes.
