Fahrenheit 451 is a novel by Ray Bradbury, depicting a world in which books are outlawed, and firemen start fires, not put them out. The main character is Guy Montag, a fireman.

The title is quite clever, because at 451 degrees Fahrenheit, paper combusts.

The son-of-a-bitch Michael Moore used the title's theme in his movie "Fahrenheit 9/11", to Ray Bradbury's disapproval.
I read Fahrenheit 451 yesterday, and realized that books and the ability to spread wisdom are very valuable.

A play on the Orwellian Dystopian novel /the temperature at which books are burned.

The number of milliseconds it takes for a Karen to decide to use her assumed “white” privilege to call the police on you for literally doing anything legal and/or speak to your manager.
Daquan was sitting in the park reading his Quran, loving the lord. Minding his own business. This Caucasian lady comes by and sits next to him... she went KARENHEIGHT 451* called the police... luckily they arrested her ass for wasting their time and being belligerent... she’ll probably get fired too.”
