100°F is well within the survivable body core temperature range, so it should never trigger pain receptors.

In fact, I believe it was defined based on the nominal core body temperature of a cow.

Another rule of thumb for those who care.

When you hold a finger on something and it is 10 seconds to pain threshold, 
that location is about 100 degrees F.
This is not an absolute constant, but I have checked it a few times since I was 
told that, and it seems to be true for me.
