    the wet bulb temperature1 is just the temperature of a wet thermometer, and varies with humidity and temperature. Wet bulb temp is never higher than the dry bulb temp, so (entertainingly) you’re proposing that the meaning of 100° varies wildly and is always lower than the true temperature, effectively making the air temperature always ≥100°, and increases when the air is drier, like some sort of inverse relative humidity.

    1(I’m aware you probably didn’t mean wet bulb temperature here, but let’s have fun with the idea) :)

    Using “,” as ellipses here is a pretty interesting tone indication feature!

    On Tumblr, “…” ended up having connotations of judgement or anger, so to avoid that, people evolved to use “,” as a softer version (often implying a more silly/amused tone) instead !
