Ah, #Midwest #weather, where in 2 days we can go from a high of nearly 60F to a low of 20F in the same day, followed by a high of just 33F the next day. (For the huge majority of the planet that sanely uses #Celsius, the F in the #temperature means the #US measuring system is F...ed up. We're being punished for our arrogance.)

Once you get to -40°F in the U.S., it is the same as -40°C at which point you are honorary Canadians, but without the "u", so not a real honour.

You know you've lost them when they suddenly look like they're trying to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit in their head.

At my last medical appointment, I discovered that I am now 1.5 inches shorter than I was when I was 20. 😬
I am switching to metric. No one understands that anyway.
