A P Eng then asked “is that in Celsius or Fahrenheit?”. Well s*** for brains, if it’s 70 Celsius ambient in your room it probably means it’s on fire.
You should probably stop using that story lol... 70C is only 158F. I cook my pizza at 450F (232C), it aint on fire.

Sounds like it was a likely a valid question (depending on the material obviously).
