Wait what do you mean with 'crossover point?'

Canker sores are mouth ulcers; for everyone else in the world.

They're usually caused by sharp/abrasive foods and/or bad diet, but can also be a physiological response to stress if you're some who's prone to them.

Cold sores or oral herpes (HSV-1) occurs in 2/3 people worldwide 1 and is about that high in the USA too 2 - though the majority don't display any symptoms. If you have a cold sore and someone takes the piss, chances are they also have HSV-1 and don't know.

Additionally, cold sores can sometimes be confused with in-growing hairs. If you pluck hairs out from around the mouth, sometimes they'll grow back without poking through the hole and can get infected.

Most things on this sub Reddit are

There are more solutions to ever problem than there are possible problems. Unity is only being held back by the greed of the ultra wealthy.

It might be counterintuitive. Or that feeling might just be because we are used to our current system, idk. If I conceptualise my measurement as 'How still is this person?' I might put them lower, yea.

Of course, unintuitive scales do exist. For example, when astronomers measure how bright a star appears from Earth, brighter stars get a lower number, and dimmer stars get a higher number.

You're right, but shouldn't this whole thing be filed under 'Shit, No'? FAO: Sherlock?

Yea, that's true. But...scale with negative numbers is still a perfectly functional scale of course. I'm just saying OP's thought is still valid I guess :p

It's counterintuitive. If you saw 2 people running and one was faster than the other would you put them lower than the slower person?

You could still make a scale that represented 'more heat' as a lower number though

Nah, you’re wrong and no matter which clever way you try to spin it, you’re still wrong.

I work 4 on/off 12hr shifts and while I've had long stretches of being without depression, in the three years I've worked the job, it's the days off that get me.

A two day weekend is too short, but four days off is too much for me on the rotations when I'm not free at the same time as my friends. Makes relationships harder and makes being single lonelier.

It was just a non-arbitary point. My point still stands with whatever number you choose. Because there's no maximum temperature you'd still eventually end up in negatives.

About the energy thing, temperature isn’t actually a measure of the energy of a system, only proportional to it, from the way we’ve defined it. Also I don’t mean reverse the scale, but invert it. Therefore a temperature tending to “absolute zero” tends to infinity, which does make sense since it’s impossible to physically reach absolute zero

Why does that matter though? You could still make a scale where colder temperatures are denoted with higher numbers

Why would you use zero as the 'upper limit'?
You could very easily make a scale where water freezes at 100 and boils at 0.
Then the absolute highest point on the scale would be 373.15, and anything warmer than boiling would just dip into negative figures

It's not that you can't invent a new word. It's that you can't invent a new word.

It's always personal.

But there's always a crossover point...

You can invent hundreds of thousands of words yourself(as all words have been invented since they dont exust in nature), them being accepted is the issue.
