You should try opening my heat treating kiln when it's been cooking at 1875° F.
Don't stand too close if you're wearing clothing made of synthetic fibers.

If the cold makes your dick shrink that shit's got to make it about ten feet long.
You have a wonderful mind
I think it'd melt into goo before it could manage that.
DON'T GET IN THE KILN!
GET OUTTA THE BLOODY KILN!
I had to look that up because it was familiar but I couldn't remember what that was from
I just hope that whatever lives in there will never breach containment.

1023.89°C in non-freedom units
Yes, because two decimals of accuracy is very important here. The kiln keeps temperature that tightly controlled.
Who am I to judge the temperature accuracy of one's furnace ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh man, I took a glass blowing course and the heat was crazy! Very glad I made sure all clothing was cotton before going lol
why do I want to put my dick in it?
450 °F = 232.222 °C
450 °C = 842 °F
450 °K = 176.85 °C = 350.33 °F
- 450K
JUST shy of book-burning temperature (according to my learnings from reading Ray Bradbury).
Um, Fahrenheit 451?

Thanks, fellow metric user! Freedom units shouldn't have a place in this world
I bake pizza at 400.
Celsius.
So do I, but Kelvin. Takes me a while.
Great temp for some pulled pork.
Legit how you get restaurant-style blackened crust. Make the crust thin and bake for 3 minutes
I'm aming for Neapolitan style pizza, my electric pizza oven is OK, but sometimes I still wish I had a garden for a real wood-fired oven.

Both are arbitrary scales. People tend to prefer the one they grew up with. Yes, water boiling at 100°C is neat. No, that doesn't mean people who use Fahrenheit are wrong. Unless they're doing science, cause SI units are important (Zenon did nothing wrong)
Also, the meme is supposed to be both. Using the American (400°F preheat is normal) assumption of relevance (yes, it's a real thing) but then pulling the switcheroo and using an image corresponding to Celsius.
I grew up with F, but now I'm all for C. It drives me crazy that the US (where I grew up) refuses to change.
The meme is clearly saying the oven is at 450°C, which is 723.15K.

With 450 °C your pizza should be ready in 30 seconds.
That's what pizza ovens run at and it takes about 2-3 minutes for the pizza to be ready. You can also get ones that go up to 500°C.
what pizza?
The pizza shop I worked at in college had the oven somewhere between 600-700 F

We got an oven that has a stone fire pizza mode on it. It gets the stone up to 750F. Cooks our homemade pizzas in ~2 minutes. It's awesome.

550 minimum for pizza
Oh, just like opening the front door in Florida.
450°R is cold as fuck, it's 41.7° below freezing duh, are you an alien?
Where is this clip from? Reminds me of Sunshine.
If zinc melt your skin melt too. Amazing oven though can cast some cool figurine with zinc.
And if I reach for the pizza without oven mitts:
opening the wood fired pizza oven at 600F...
I was planning to joke about the 450° of rotation but, you know, internet is strange so, instead I found a French pizzeria... https://www.450degres.fr/
I was gonna say it never bothers me then I realized I don’t set it that high.
But why? Is it necessary for frozen pizzas?
