F? I experienced it a couple times when I grew up in NY. Just 5 seconds of it is... I guess appalling is the right word.
C? No idea.

Wow, what happened? Where were you?

When I was about 11 or 12 I started inserting objects in you can guess where. I have injured myself down there and deal with sexual confusion. I have inserted just about everything in there possible. I have had a lot of sex toys over the years. Some of them huge. I can’t control gas if I have been using large toys recently. Back in my late 20s I was doing it so much I had trouble controlling movements. So if anyone thinks that won’t be a problem, your wrong. Many sex toys are made from strong chemicals and can burn when used. The descending colon is made to absorb things and I think there is a toxic risk using many sex toys. Its probably a good idea to put a condom on them.

My hometown was New Lebanon, NY. With the windchill on certain nights in the winter it could get that cold. It gets cold up there! On typical winter mornings walking off the bus to school, my hair would freeze solid because it was still wet from the shower! It didn't hurt or anything, but imagine the feeling of super cold hair gel.

It's been colder. It was painful, but I liked it, actually.

Wet hair freezes at like -10. No big deal.

Hypothermia would start to set in.

A person would freeze at 32F.

Doesn't matter F/C, just -40 degrees of either.

-40F is the same as -40C, people.
At those temperatures, exposed flesh will freeze within seconds, causing deep frostbite when it is rewarmed - You can expect to have affected parts amputated. You will lose most manual dexterity and have no touch sensitivity in your hands. Your core body temperature will eventually drop if you do not have shelter and hypothermia will probably kill you.

@previous ([^_^] !IOdbnXsKDk)> I'll tell you you're wrong, even though I don't actually know whether you're wrong.
Go and convert it. It's the same. In fact, I'll do it for you.

Not until after I'd written and posted that.
I was too lazy and apathetic to change it.
