Temperature is the measure of average kinetic energy in a system. So if you are adding the average kinetic energy of one system to another, yeah, 0C+0C is > 0C from a physics perspective but makes no sense from an arithmetic perspective.

The question needs more context to make sense.

You can't add temperatures without meaning.

This is also why you use Kelvin: it avoids this 0 problem.

0K+0K is still 0K because no additional heat is being added. But you are with C and F.

In physics, you talk about adding joules to the system. Which then makes this all make a ton of more sense.

LMAO. it is a fucking joke. are we all so autistic here, that we cannot chuckle about something so absurd that it can only be a joke?

Not even remotely autistic at all (I've been tested because I misbehaved at school because classroom instruction is boring as fuck). Explaining why the joke doesn't make sense is a form of explanation trolling and can function as it's own counter-humor. At the end of the very much correct explanation for why the joke teller is clearly retarded, then you and your pals can laugh the guy who made the retarded joke. "Brian, you're so fucking retarded. You think your jokes are clever but you constantly reveal what an absolute uneducated troglodyte you are. haha, get Brian a beer. We still love you even if you're retarded."
