Bahahahahahaha, why is it true 😂😂

Soo funny! I have a child who was born in Australia and one who was born in the Netherlands. I have a photo of them in the summer holidays, 20 degrees. The Aussie one is dressed in winter boots, long pants and a big winter jacket. The Dutch one is wearing a swimsuit in the paddling pool. It cracks me up everytime I look at it.

Come on, we wear shorts when it’s -10°C

If it was converted to °F, would the rest of the world understand the meme? 🤔

I have a crazy idea... How about a thread about Canada be about Canada instead of the US?

So 50F and 86F

I went to Google this before I read the bottom panel... Oops. But also, Minnesotans wear shorts in 5 degree weather soo

I'm still trying to get Celsius, I'm failing

Postmen in the UK: *wearing shorts and their postie jacket no matter the C°*

Yup, not understanding the metric system is yet another reason why Dumb'Muricans are so dumb. 1-American...05b2dc.jpg

Sorry for killing this joke :) but I am Australian and interestingly, most Australian kids actually wear shorts and t shirt when it is 10 C too.

Ha! Jokes on you, I’m an American who prefers Celsius and uses it in my phone 😎

Canadian kids wear shorts when it's cold outside. Australian kids wear jackets when it's hot outside. Let's just take numbers right out of the equation.

Me: The one Canadian that only understands F

.. because all Canadian & Australian kids know F°, right?

10 degrees C is not that cold. At least not in Wisconsin or Minnesota

ME

I have some online friends that live in places that use celcius so i have a general understanding of it

It's not the standard in America. Doesn't mean our children are dumb.

I don't think they care haha

Born and raised in the USA and I understand Celsius.

Hahahaha, they will catch on….one day

Hey! Mind ya bidness!! 😂😂😂

In Louisiana, they never die!

For those who don't know that is 50 and 86 in Farenheit. Did that in my head. Oh, and I am an American.

Lol, never been to Canada but I'm with Canadians there

English girls wear next to nothing when it's - 5°. Especially on the weekends when they are going out drinking.

Oh yes, American kids live in Banana land. Everything measured in bananas.

Woooo, America! USA, USA, USA! ...but yeah, we need to switch.

50° F for Canada, 86° F for Australia.

You got us on that one.

American kids need parents who insist they learn both systems - because the world does not revolve around the USA, even when so many of us believe that to be true. It's beyond sad and venturing into the pathetic. (And yes, I am an American who learned and then taught my kids )

40F and 86F. You just multiply by 1.8 then add 32

Ha! Yeah. When I was a teen in Colorado, and outside temps went above 40°F (5°C) kids were in the street in cutoffs and t-shirts throwing a baseball around... Ahh! Spring is finally here!

Casually switches to Google search to find the conversions...

Hahahahahahahahahaha 😅😅😅😅😅😅

😶‍🌫️ cloudy as we are, I think we get it. Not all Americans r stupid or uneducated.

Minnesotans wearing shorts when it is -20 F. And we know -40F =-40 C

This is so true. I’m American but I lived in Europe for 4.5 years so I understand Celsius and it makes more sense to me but I usually keep it in Fahrenheit. Basically I understand both.
