    We sure are. We’re walking around, being 70% superheated ice. We can melt normal solids like oxygen and carbon dioxide to vapour just by huffing on them. In fact, we breathe oxygen and carbon dioxide!

      I’m pretty sure oxygen would be a gas there.

      It wouldn’t last for long, as it’s that incredibly reactive gas that corrodes everything, but it’s a gas.
