If even one of you gets a post removed during one of these bit struggle sessions you failed the bit and should feel immense shame. Doing a bit successfully is Praxis.

Find things to struggle about that doesn't get out of hand. It's important to let off some steam now and again but do it in a way that doesn't harm your fellow comrades or add work to the mod team.

I'll start: Some beans are better than other beans. Like kidney beans are bad nasty icky beans but black beans are actually amazing.

Fahrenheit is based on humans, Celsius is based on water.

0F is about as cold as the average person can handle (with warm clothes), 100F is about as hot as the average person can handle. 100 is of course also about our internal body temperature.

Fahrenheit also divides nicely into groups of 10s. "The temperature is going to be in the 80s today, so wear light clothes."

Meanwhile in Celsius, at 0 you have to put on a medium coat, at 100 you're literally boiling alive.

felt temperature is wildly variant on conditions and between different people. boiling point of water is consistent and predictable.
