Not really. This is more a matter of what you're used to than "more tuned to the senses". Which is nonsense.

It's fine if you like it, but don't make up junk reasons. Just own it.

"It's fine if you like it, but don't make up junk reasons. Just own it."

Take your own advice. I'm the only one here that's provided legitimate reasons as to why this is true, every other comment is basically just "lmao fuck Fahrenheit amirite?"

But honestly I'm really not surprised that a random meme community on the internet doesn't understand an idea more complicated than "x good, y bad". Believe it or not, science is more complex than that.

Oof, struck a nerve huh? You didn't provide a concrete reason. You say it's relative to our senses, but it isn't any more than any other scale is.

Anyway, as I said, you can just like it cause you do. You don't have to make up reasons for it.
