HASO - Habitable Planets

A gem from Tumblr user crazypages. This is under the concept that Earth is Space Australia, for reference. As always I tidied it up a bit in the retyping but didn't change the spirit.

Alien: I'm sorry, what did you say your comfortable temperature range is?

Human: Honestly we can tolerate anywhere from -40 to 50 Celsius, but we prefer the 0 to 30 range.

Alien: .. I'm sorry. Did you just list ranges below the freezing point of water?

Human: Yeah, but most of us prefer to throw on scarves or jackets at those temperatures. It can be a bit nippy.

Other human: Nah mate. I knew this guy in college who refused to wear anything past his knees and elbows until it was -20 at least.

Human: Yeah. Everybody knows someone like that.

Alien: ... And did you also say 50 Celsius? As in, halfway to the point of water boiling?

Human: Eugh. Yes. It sucks, we sweat everywhere, and god help you if you touch a seatbelt buckle, but yes.

Alien: ..... We've got like 50 uninhabitable planets we think you might enjoy.
