How hot are the Hubs of Hades?

Asked by fordest (194points) December 26th, 2011

My mother-in-law used to always use the phrase, “hotter than the Hubs of Hades”. Now, due to vocal exasperation from her daughter and my constant query, “exactly how hot are the Hubs of Hades?” she has quit using it. I really don’t think I will be getting an answer from her, so I turn to you, Jellies. How hot are they?

1,300 °F to 2,200 °F if you mean “Hell”.

About a 2 if you mean this guy

(666—((Level of hell you are in)^2 + 23))(i)

They’re actually kept cooler than the ambient temperature of 666. It might be an engineering snafu, but the hot tubs melt around 583 degrees, well before 666, leaving a hot puddle. Nobody likes a hot puddle. So, to contain the water, they actually cool it to a brisk 550 degrees. People go hot-tubbing to cool down.

It’s a bit of a misnomer really.

How hot does it have to be to scare you into doing the right thing?

A comfortable 100 degrees Farenheit.

Hubs of Hades? Is that close to the “hinges” of Hades?
