I understand you're being sassy but below zero you do start saying "no but seriously, how can it be this cold?" Zero is about the lower limit before temperature stops being distinguishable and just becomes cold
The feeling of cold weather is entirely subjective. A Brazilian from Bahia will wear a winter coat and feel cold at 20C, but somebody from northern Canada would be going out for a swim in their shorts.
Which is why any attempt at using "oh it means cold percentage" or "oh below zero it just feels the same" is extremely dumb and a easily refutable attempt at saving a bad scale.
Point was, doesn't matter who you are or where you're from, once it gets to -40 it's "fucking cold" to literally everyone
Yup. We were at an event and it was a hot weekend, mid 30’s C, sunny, so we were in shorts and staying in the shade. My sister, who had just come back from a tour in Afghanistan, was wearing a sweater and shivering.
I grew up in the Northeastern US. I lived in the Southeastern US for a few years. My first year there it was 65F in March and everyone was still in their winter coats with scarves and hats commenting that they couldn't wait for spring and I was in a t shirt with sweat literally rolling down my arms and face and I remember saying "wait, this isn't spring?"
Sweat rolling down your arms at 65 degrees?

There is a BIG difference between 0F, -20F and -40F. And as someone that has worked in areas that has often seen -60F, -20F feels like spring in comparison, the local Inuit wouldn’t even wear a jacket at 0F.
It is funny how 40 in the fall sees most folks bundling up with everything they have, and 40 the spring is shorts and sandals weather.
I don’t stop wearing shorts until it’s about 0F out or the wind is insane. Not to like shovel the driveway or anything being out for extended periods, but going out shopping or whatever is fine. Today was 0 with a -20 windchill and my Costco run was done in shorts, a sweatshirt, and a baseball cap.
Spoken like somebody who doesn't experience freezing degrees very often.
