![For all the Fahrenheit is better than Celcius guys, a question [973x939 - 586KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/YBvQU4.png){kind=link}
In 1742, Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701–1744) created a temperature scale that was the reverse of the scale now known as "Celsius": 0 represented the boiling point of water, while 100 represented the freezing point of water.
For all those Celsius is better because 'muh metric system, just remember that the Celsius (Centigrade) scale was literally backwards when it was first conceived. Notice Celsius only lived about 2 years after developing his backwards scale. I can't prove it, but I think his early demise had to do with him confusing people with his weird temperature scale and getting his bathwater drawn at 37C which gave him fatal 3rd degree burns.
