While the conversion is appreciated, there’s no reason to be an ass about it. OP labeled it, so it’s not like it was confusing or making unnecessary assumptions about the audience. So really you’re the one who just comes across as completely culturally insensitive.

If it’s such a paradise it wouldn’t have an absolutely spastic way of measuring the temperature
For the other 97% of the planet, the yank means 21 to 29 degrees, I had to look it up

The vast majority, by a fucking huuuuuuge margin, has no fuckin idea how Fahrenheit works
It’s culturally insensitive and selfish to use it on the World Wide Web

maybe just go look it up its what i have to do when some idiot uses celsius (wtf even is that crap???)

Because measuring temperature based on human body reflective saline solution’s interaction with temperature change instead of regular water definitely qualifies as “spastic.”
Then again it looks like you’re one of those euro losers who copes with us making you give up all your colonies post war for rebuilding money by redirecting all those attitudes about “the uncivilized world” onto the developed country that just happens to have a high rate of racial diversity.
BTW Mr. “American culture is racism”, how are those Roma folks doing?

What an absurd and intellectually inferior unit of measurement you have elected to use here. For the enlightened among us the philistine means 294 to 302 degrees Kelvin.

It’s just Kelvin, you poseur.
