The Aussie one is dressed in winter boots, long pants and a big winter jacket. The Dutch one is wearing a swimsuit in the paddling pool. It cracks me up everytime I look at it.
I really want to see this picture 😂 that’s hilarious
Load More Replies..."A hundred degrees outside" - in America, this would mean a regular hot day, in Europe - an apocalyptic event :D
Try 100 deg Fahrenheit and 100% humidity with no breeze. Welcome to Louisiana
Load More Replies...If it was converted to °F, would the rest of the world understand the meme? 🤔
Probably. But why should we? It's not the world's fault that the US is the only country that uses just freedom units, instead of a proper system.
Load More Replies...I Start melting at 25°C 😅 for me, 30 is Hot enough, i don't want to go outside
Load More Replies...I have a crazy idea... How about a thread about Canada be about Canada instead of the US?
Ha ha! Someone learned a different system of measurement than I did as a child, so they're stupid!
I went to Google this before I read the bottom panel... Oops. But also, Minnesotans wear shorts in 5 degree weather soo
American schoolkids have known the metric system since the 1970s when it became obligatory in schools to teach it. This joke, repeated ad naseum, merely shows how ridiculously stupid feruners can be.
It's especially ridiculous when you find Canadians using lbs for weight and speed limit signs in the UK are in MPH.
Load More Replies...Postmen in the UK: *wearing shorts and their postie jacket no matter the C°*
wearing sandals to work even when it is -4C because there is no snow on the ground yet.
Yup, not understanding the metric system is yet another reason why Dumb'Muricans are so dumb. 1-American...05b2dc.jpg
Me: Who's gets very cold and very hot then is not even american but lives in america ;-;
Ha! Jokes on you, I’m an American who prefers Celsius and uses it in my phone 😎
Canadian kids wear shorts when it's cold outside. Australian kids wear jackets when it's hot outside. Let's just take numbers right out of the equation.
Same here. All the women in the office wear heavy sweaters even when it's 40C(104F) outside.
Load More Replies...10 degrees C is not that cold. At least not in Wisconsin or Minnesota
I have some online friends that live in places that use celcius so i have a general understanding of it
This could easily be about US Northerners. It's not that unusual to see Northerners in cargo shorts in 10C or see them in jackets when it's 30C. And, yeah, I had to look up C to F to make sure I wasn't wasting my time with this comment.
It's not the standard in America. Doesn't mean our children are dumb.
White people come to work in shorts when it's below zero in any temperature measurements haha, ya different.
10 degrees isn’t cold, I wear a sweatshirt and shorts all year long, it is 30 degrees F right now and I’m still wearing shorts
For those who don't know that is 50 and 86 in Farenheit. Did that in my head. Oh, and I am an American.
English girls wear next to nothing when it's - 5°. Especially on the weekends when they are going out drinking.

Oh yes, American kids live in Banana land. Everything measured in bananas.
10 degrees is cold, 30 degrees is hot. That’s really all you need to know.
American kids need parents who insist they learn both systems - because the world does not revolve around the USA, even when so many of us believe that to be true. It's beyond sad and venturing into the pathetic. (And yes, I am an American who learned and then taught my kids )
I wear shorts until it dips to 4C and stop wearing a jacket when it gets above 14C. And I'm not even from Canada lol
Haha, jokes on you. I lived in Europe and they already ridiculed me into learning.
Ha! Yeah. When I was a teen in Colorado, and outside temps went above 40°F (5°C) kids were in the street in cutoffs and t-shirts throwing a baseball around... Ahh! Spring is finally here!
😶🌫️ cloudy as we are, I think we get it. Not all Americans r stupid or uneducated.
This is so true. I’m American but I lived in Europe for 4.5 years so I understand Celsius and it makes more sense to me but I usually keep it in Fahrenheit. Basically I understand both.
I was just going to Google to convert it to °f and now I can't. I feel attacked lmbo
As a Midwesterner, I'm offended. It gets cold plenty of places and this girl here loves being outside in - degree weather. Y'all not the only ones sitting outside in a tank when there's a snowstorm.
10°c is not that cold. Now if you said -10°c that would be more accurate.
I'm from New England region. 10 deg C isn't even that cold. I had Canadian friends who would literally wear shorts and t shirt when it was 25-30 F (-4 to - 1 deg C)
Meanwhile Alaskan kids walk to school in shorts in -31 C. Drops mikes, walks away.
Me, wearing shorts in the snow and jackets inside the classroom: cha cha real smooth
Freedom degrees vs Communist degrees! At least that's what I tell my EU gf. I still remember learning about metric system in elementary in the 60s because "we were going to convert". Apparently that is too difficult even though it took me about a week when I lived in Europe. Still better than the British with all their stones and such.
Me ( the American) and my Canadian friend trying to understand each other when we talk about the weather...
In fairness 10 Celsius isn't that cold... yes I'm Canadian lol. I will say however that 10C in April is much warmer than 10C in October for some strange reason...
Australian kids wondering if the creator of this meme even knows what C° is.
i understand but only because i spent my elementary school years with an obsession of anything european.
10? That’s still tank top and shorts weather. A lot of us wear shorts in -25°C
Yeah, I just spend 5 minutes trying to figure out what temperature this was
The math for converting Celsius to Fahrenheit is ridiculous it’s like take weather multiply by 1.8 or 9/5 then add 32 …that’s just so damn weird to me lol
If precision isn't important like with weather, multiply by 2 then add 32. Works better with temps closer to 0.
Load More Replies...Well, I know that C is celsius, but I can't translate the temperatures.
Yeah! I mean… for 10C it’s talking about roughly broken fridge temperature and for 30C it’s talking about coffee that’s sat on the counter for too long. See? I told you I got it!
Load More Replies...Actually, American kids just calculate it. 10/5=2, 2x9=18, 18+32=50. (And also 50f is pretty hot, I’m from Michigan.) 30/5=6 6x9=54 54+32=86
I want to apologize for my nationality, (American) . I don't know why they do the things they do here 🤷. But, my grandbabies live here so here we are

To find out more about the Canadian lifestyle and its quirks, Bored Panda spoke with Casie Stewart, a Canadian award-winning content creator who has been documenting her life since 2005 via her blog ‘This is My Life.’ Her social entrepreneurship and dedication to social media won her 2016 Voice Pioneer at the Canadian Screen Awards by The Canadian Academy of Cinema & Television. Today, Casie is represented by the National Speakers Bureau of Canada.
Casie told Bored Panda that Canadian humor is pretty sarcastic and light-hearted. “We like to make jokes and it's true, we say 'sorry' a lot,” she said. “I grew up in Canada and I absolutely love living here. We have a great quality of life! My home is Toronto and my favorite city in Canada,” Casie told us.

When asked about her favourite Canadian cultural quirks, Casie said that one funny thing is “that ‘yeah, no’ means no, and ‘yeah, no for sure’ means yes,” she laughed. “We also spell things a bit different here than in the USA, ex honour, humour, and favourite all have a U,” Casie added.
The weather is also a big thing when it comes to Canadian life. “In Canada, we have 4 distinct seasons so we get to experience a really hot summer, beautiful Autumn colours (and fashion!), then a cold snowy winter, plus the spring where everything comes back to life,” she explained.
It took me, an American, WAY too long to realize they are referring to hockey. I thought Canada had some kind of awesome bloodbath gladiator deathmatch sport that I didn't know about.
Deer are dumber than a box of hammers and will jump directly in front of your car when they weren't even near the road to begin with.
Canadian women are on another level. Picture: Hugo Lorini
Sure they're not Geordie lasses? Oh, hang on, they're wearing too many clothes...
Driving unplowed curvy hilly backroads going home at midnight with snow deep enough on the road that it sweeps over the front of your car and over the windshield in an endless opaque wave, with the side window open so you can actually see anything, in near whiteout snowfall and well below freezing temperature, all while driving fast enough to keep your momentum to get over the hills, but slow enough not to drive off the road into a ditch, and knowing that if you mess up and get stuck, there probably won't be another vehicle along for hours and you're in for a real long walk. Yeah, real winter in the country is fun.
same thing at the beach in Australia if you eat hot potato chips and the seagulls notice.
That's actually pretty accurate, except that the Facebook part should read "We know you bought a toaster yesterday. Here are some 20 ads for toaster ovens if you wished to buy 5 more"
The transport trucks in Ontario are notorious for anything before 10 am. You learn not to follow close as an entire car made of snow could come off their roof in 1 go

Sooooo from this I've learned it's very cold, and expensive... and geese are a nuisance?
Yup, pretty much. Geese are insanely protective of their nests and territory… they will not hesitate to attack. Our summers are nice but this winter is expected to be a particularly brutal one. Expensive has been a recent thing for the most part… thanks COVID. Hey though, free health care and it is a beautiful country.

I grew up near the Mexican border on the U.S. side. When I think of the border, I immediately think of the one the U.S. shares with Mexico. How interesting.
Load More Replies...My ex is from Canada and I wish i could live there with him. Shame I made some poor choices and now I'm stuck in England with no future... ex is currently travelling in vietnam then NZ. A year working in Oz...i wish i had the courage. I'd have traveled anywhere with him. Be careful what you settle for. The advertisement of "life" isn't worth it or anywhere near fun. See the world, learn and experience, life is for living. Don't be like me because you value tradition. Do.what.you.want! :-D
No offense meant, but I think a psychiatrist would have a lot of fun analyzing that message. Lots of intermixed complex emotions and repression.
Load More Replies...First! The number of repeats in this thread is extreme. But topic/pics/etc great

While some of these are hilarious, how anyone with even a partially functioning brain could think there are mountains in Saskatchewan, defies belief. I did lol - literally - at some of these. There are many more out there I’m sure. After being raised in the UK until my teens, living in Winterpeg for years and now living in ND via Chicago, my heart is Canadian. Love Canada and her people!
I'm a Nigeria ive heard so much of Canada is one of my favourite places to visit
Snow, yes that very uniquely Canadian experience. You certainly don't see that stuff in any other country in the world.
I would love to see more posts on how others deal with winter and add to list of how to enjoy such beautiful season. Fondue and mulled wine in many parts of Europe, etc.
