In the United States, March 14 is 3-14 — the first three digits in pi. At 1:59, all work ceases and people swarm into the streets to honor their favorite irrational number.* How will you celebrate?
(*Well, they will, when Musers are running things.)

First post? Please? Maybe?
Pie is good. So is Pi.
I will sing the pi song and annoy my friends. I was going to decorate a shirt for it, but I forgot. I forgot to get a shirt and fabric paint for it last year too.
I ♥ pi. My favorite irrational number, and after 42 my choice for random answering.
First post? Probably not.
We have Pi day posters all over our school.
Hee hee hee… now I have an excuse to post a ridiculous amount of pit digits. Here’s something to start this thread going…
Pi =

[By request, we’ve moved most of these intriguing digits to a dedicated Pi Thread where MBers can enjoy them without slowing down their browsers too much.]
Hahahahaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!! I will put copies of my math book all over the house!!!!! Mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it’s tomorrow! huzzah!
HAPPY PIE DAY!!!!!! (well, almost)
My mom used to make a pie, but I don’t know if she will do it this year.
I HAVE A CALF NAMED PI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it’s soooo awesome, she should be the pi day mascot for muse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! she’s a little brown cow with short horns and a …strange disposition. She doesn’t really like people, i think she learned not to trust them or something at her last home, oh well, I’ll take care of her and she’ll recover from her people-phobia. anyway, Pi is cool
Notice the famous Feynman point in pi, at digit 768. If you look at post 4, you’ll see it on the 13th line in the 5th group of digits.
davidude-it’s nice that you keep providing us with these long pi lists, but, GAPAs, would you mind putting it on a thread where you can’t post, but you can look at davidude’s pi list, then come back here to write about it? That way this thread won’t take forever to load, and the postless thread wouldn’t take long to load because there wouldn’t be posts. ???????
sorry!!! I’m really sorry!!! I just put them there for reference. I didn’t mean to sabotage the thread!!!
My friend and I are having a PI PARTY!!! w00t!
We should have stopped what we were doing at 1:59 and 26 seconds, right? Then, if you happened to be looking at an atomic clock, you could stop at such and such milliseconds and…
I missed 1:59:26 EDT, but by coincidence I was reading this thread when 1:59 hit the Pacific coast. Under the circumstances, I didn’t think it necessary to stop what I was doing.
I like Pi day. Coincidentally, I was eating Pi(e) at 1:59!!!
I’m more of a fan of Mole Day myself…
I sang a very annoying Pi Day song to everyone I met in the hall at school.
I missed pi minute! I remembered at 1:53 and I planned on keeping track carefully for the next 6 minutes so i woiuldn’t miss it, but then i fell and got distracted and by the time i remembered it was 2:10! but anyway, my mom made an apple pie with the pi sign written on it.
17 – What’s the very annoying Pi Day song?
16- hey, where’ve you been?
20 — Oh, here and there. I stop by every once in a while, but I just sort of lost interest around the same time as MontgomereyGirl for similar reasons. I still get and read Muse, but I just haven’t been around the blog much…
(21),
Regardless, it’s always good to see your familiar…well, not face, but pseudonym and prose style. Presence. You old-timers bring a certain gravitas to the blog whenever you reappear. You’re always welcome.
21- D_Q!! Hey! *pies* I remember you. How’s life? Did you eat pie today?
Hmm… I thought I posted here before. Oh well.
D_Q!! Good to see you back!
*pi*
You’ve been pied! Hee hee
23 — sadly no. I had to miss pre-calc today due to standardized testing…
24-Were you just saying that because the link said he hadn’t (he I guess?)? I’m not sure I even remember him! Still, PIIII!!!! heheh
25 – hello! i’ve never, ahhh…what’s the word…ummm…seen you post on MB before! that’s it! anyhow, i like your name. have u read all th Series of Unfortunate Events books? zey rock.
Imissed the minute/seconds of pi, though. And I didn’t have math because w’re on a block schedual so I don’t have geometry on wednesdays. Oh well.
I would guess that you’ve read the series of unfortunate events by your name. just a guess. i’m on number 10 now, but they are starting to get tedious.
the end is really good
I missed pi day! WAHHHHHHHHHH!
OH well. I’ll just celebrate virtually several days late. I think the pi song goes something like this:
Pi, glorious pi,
(insert first 100 didgets of pi here)
Pi, glorious pi,
(Second hundred)
Pi, glorios pi,
And so on and so forth (Ie, as long as someone will listen to you, or as long as you can be bothered to sing it! Have fun!)
27, 29, 30 — the first book and books 5-10 were the best. 11 and 12 were pretty alright, but I’m still not sure how I feel about book 13. I mean the plot was better than a lot of the other books in the series, but it really didn’t answer any of our questions and it left so many loose ends that I didn’t like it that much.
Oh and by the way, I got my pie today… it was two days late, but it’s better than nothing, I suppose.
PI is DA BOMB!!!!!!!
It’s my first favorite number, and my second favorite is infinity.
32- I totally agree! I was bursting with questions when I finished that book! We should have a thread for speculation about this (speculation about SoUE, not my bursting).
PI DAY ROCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, and iwanttobeamuffin, this is THE PI SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just add a little music.
