Xmas Pi

When the number π has unprovenly been using dreams for centuries to hint at number theorists and numerologists that besides some Old Testament books in the Bible, the birth of Christ is also revealed via its digits, if only they know how or where to look for them—had they sought the Holy Spirit, the Third Person in the Trinity, for direction, they would have received the revelation instead of struggling with their own intellect.

Divining the virgin birth of the Messiah via Xmas pi would have been a digital coup for the mathematical brethren, who could have been flirting with mathematical immortality thanks to their discovery.

Orgasmic Pi

The aha! feeling math geeks experience at the sight or sound of a little juicy or sexy theorem, or math factoid, on the number π—a minor form of mathematical bliss that could last for days in some instances.

Just as Roland Barthes, French writer and critic, associates a good or pleasurable read with a dizzying orgasm, pure mathematicians or number theorists secretly dream or long for an orgasmic pi chance encounter, especially when they’re at their most vulnerable state of mind.

Pi Lockdown

When the frequency of the number π gracing the pages of reputable math journals took a dive during the pandemic, when both male and female mathematicians and math educators worldwide, working from home, felt half-productive or fell sick from Covid-19.

Guesstimate how many pure mathematicians globally had some mental health issues during the pi lockdown in 2020–2021.

pi time

pi = approximately 3.14
therefore, when the clock shows 3:14, it is Pi Time!

An excellent time to eat pie.

Dude check out the clock, it's 3:14 - better heat up that cherry pie yo mama made cuz it's pi time!

Pi Moment

When the public announcement of the proof of a famous unsolved problem on π turned out to be short-lived, because the result was later found to contain grave errors.

Mathematicians worldwide were excited to hear that the number (π + e) has been proved to be transcendental (i.e., its value can’t be the root of an algebraic equation with rational coefficients), but the news was nothing but a pi moment.

Pi Sigma

Pi Sigma is a diverse sorority of cannabis-proud women also known as the Pink Sesh Society. From sophisticated women who run executive board meetings, to elegant mothers handling family business, these women live unapologetically, celebrate each other, and enjoy cannabis.

I can't wait to become a member of Pi Sigma and meet new friends and sisters.

Pi’s Irrationality

When the number π uses its celebrity status in popular culture to push other mathematical constants or beloved numbers around so that they remain out of sight to the lay public, who might otherwise discover their hidden beautiful numerical or geometric properties.

Some numerical rebels like 0, √2, e, i, and 𝛷 have ganged together to protest against pi’s irrationality—they wanted π to be censored for its bullying behaviors and condescending attitudes vis-à-vis fellow mathematical constants and geometric figures.
