Pi Day

Sutent

Today is a very important day. The day of pi. Pi am sure is most peoples favourite mathematical constant. I had a vegetable pi for lunch today in celebration. Next year is a very important day for pi. 3.14.15

The mathematicians friend.

Oh lord, didn't realise I had to choose a mathematical constant. What are the other choices?

Sutent

Pi is fundenemtal to everything we do. We should have an official day like the USA

Sutent

There are so many. e, gravity and speed of light are other popular ones

miss annie

I'm a bit hazy on a few of those. Can I have the Five Second Rule? It is science, right? http://www.forbes.com/sites/alicegwalton/2014/03/14/amazingly-science-backs-5-second-rule-for-dropped-food/

I always had a weakness for Pi; the symbol is beautiful and so simple, yet it's hiding such complexity. <br><br>Long live Pi!<br>

I always eat food that I drop. Our bodies are used to everyday bacteria. Most of us survive the grime of the tube

'Most of us'?

Why is it pi day today? What's the secret connection? (Surely it should be 22 July ... or March 3 if you're decimal, though you can only get to one past the decimal point)

Sutent

Its using us date system. 3.14

Stop this creeping americanisation it's 14/3. <div>Which is 4.666 recurring.</div><div>Which is no more or less a reason to eat pie than any other number.</div><div>I blame Bin Laden.</div>

conformable_kate

so it is - imagine remembering the antiquated fractional form of pi as 22/7, and forgetting the correct decimal ... US dating very annoying, anyway. How about 31 April for pi day?<div><br></div><div>Pie. There's a thought.</div>

It was also Steak and Blowjob day apparently. I found there was a lack of greeting cards for either if these worthy celebrations.

@conforbatle Kate - that works well. We could have own UK pi party 

miss annie

UKPI ?

Sutent

@missannie - haha good spot. Almost works as well as fcuk

Sutent

@coomfortableKate. I just realised. There are only 30 days in April!!

conformable_kate

So there are. Not one of my brighter moments. But maybe it can signify the impossibility/ indeterminacy of pi, in some deep philosophical way...

Mirandola

That'll be it. Incidentally, decent pies at the new deli.

Sutent

@comfortable_Kate. Ha ha very good
