I don’t think anyone knows what a C° is
Most every kid who has taken high school science should know what °C is, though

If those Americans could read Celsius they'd be very upset.
I'm american and I know 10 C isn't even that cold because it's above freezing
I live in the American South, and I’m happy to wear shorts outside at 10C (50 F), so long as it’s not windy…
Now, a jacket at 30C (86F)… that’s a bit warm for me…
F = C*(9/5)+32
If you don’t want the ratio, 9/5=1.8
To estimate the temperature conversion, multiply by 2 and add 32… then estimate a touch less… I eyeballed 10C to be 50ish before breaking out the calculator and finding it was 50 on the nose

how is °C written incorrectly twice? it was already correct in the first part of the meme
Meme made by an American kid.
Or Australian. They made it upside-down.
If they get drunk enough, do they start doing stuff back in the normal, upside-up way?

Cº is the final boss of the C family of programming languages, once you've sharpened your senses to an objective double plus level of holy, minus any rust, you can finally get the degree.
It goes :
C°
C
C++
C++++ (or C# if you're tight for space)
C+ and C+++ were test versions that weren't widely deployed.
This guy got his C degrees.

We'd be very pissed if we could read.
Canadians wearing shorts when cold.
Australians wearing jackets when hot.
(I inferred this through context. Ha!)

I mean, Americans know 0C is the freezing temperature of water and 100C is the boiling temperature of water, so even with that most basic information taught in like, First Grade Science, people can understand the meme.
People wearing shorts in the cold vs people wearing jackets in the heat.
You overestimate the public education system in my state; especially when I was in grade school.
(I thought it was 100°F boiling and 0°F was freezing)
Maybe you're just dumb. That's always a possibility
That’s what I was implying.

C degrees?
100 degrees? That's pretty hot out.
Id go as far as saying it would be boiling

I live in Morocco and I’ve seen people wearing thick winter jackets in 45c, and then they’ll complain about it being too hot.
You have to suffer for fashion. It's called "drip" because of all the sweat.

I'm gonna be so real, 10° is not that cold.
48 degrees F. Really isn't.
When I lived in Minnesota the shorts came out when we warmed up to even 1C. Yeah I'm American but I've lived a couple of years in Europe and I can math so I know what a C is. I still prefer F. But my wife likes D.

Translation: Alaskans wearing shorts, Texans wearing jackets.
I mean, we know what ice and fire mean. And believe it or not, we know where both Canada and Australia are.
I feel justified wearing shorts at any temperature above freezing. Its 4°C now and I'm sweating in jeans and a t-shirt.

Pfffffft of course I know what C is. It's the third letter of the English alphabet! CC is for needles and CCC is probably boobs or something. And Cs is what allows people go get degrees. (/J)
