It isn’t about being “scared” of them, it is about them being used.
And we don’t just make forecasts, we report actual temperatures.
But whatever, you just want an air of superiority.

You go if you want to be precise as Fahrenheit is without decimals.


Yet weather reports rarely include them.


Fahrenheit was literally devised by a physicist, Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit, a European, mind you.
It was based on physical properties, too. Originally 0 was the freezing point of a replicable water solution, and 96 was set at human body temperature (96 used as it made dividing a thermometer easier). It was later recalibrated to put boiling at 212, 180 degrees from freezing, but that’s the original basis.
There is no god-ordained rule that states that 0 has to be the freezing point of water, nor 100 the boiling point.
Fahrenheit also has an inherent advantage to Celsius in that for every 5 degrees C there are 9 degrees F. There is more inherent precision.


Star Trek. I want to live in a post-scarcity society with incredible technology.


A Quiet Place is just one of those movies that withstands zero scrutiny. How do those creatures hear regular noises from miles away, but can’t hear breathing or a heartbeat in the same room? How did no one think to try sonic attacks on the creatures with super sensitive hearing before a girl got hearing aid feedback? How did they build all that stuff to be silent without making noise in the first place? If the waterfall and other noisy areas are safe, why don’t they live there? Why I’m the hell would they have a baby in a world where you can’t make noise?


Because there are a ton of jerks that don’t flush.
He was a German scientist in Poland, actually.
