Make “Hot as Balls” an official unit of measurement

Make “Hot as Balls” an official unit of measurement

The Issue

The popular colloquialism “hot as balls” is frequently used to describe temperature conditions considered to be unpleasantly hot. Since this relies on subjective feelings, and could refer to a wide range of specific temperatures, it leaves a great deal of room for confusion. By officially defining “hot as balls” as to a specific temperature or defined temperature range, we can then form a frame of reference which improves communication and is also hilarious, thereby improving society in two ways at once. 

Since human testicles generally stay around 97°F (36.1°C), we suggest making this as a starting point for the official “hot as balls” temperature. This may be further discussed by a committee of experts prior to official adoption.
