The mathematical trickery here is absolutely brilliant! This "proof" uses the one special temperature where Celsius and Fahrenheit scales intersect (-40°) and then performs some delightfully bogus algebra on it. It's like saying "I found the one place where these roads cross, therefore ALL roads must cross everywhere!" The QED at the end (Latin for "thus it has been demonstrated") is the chef's kiss of mathematical overconfidence. Temperature conversion actually follows the formula F = (9/5)C + 32, but who needs actual formulas when you can just divide both sides by -40 and call it a day? This is what happens when you skip too many math classes but still want to sound smart at parties!
