When no mathematical constant other than π has attracted so much envy or jealousy among fellow members in the Number Kingdom—when π continues to steal the show wherever she goes, because her sexy numerical and geometric properties have led legions of math geeks on their knees to worship her.
Love her or loathe her, even mathophohics can’t ignore the mesmerizing or magical beauty of f***ing pi, with some of them even able to experience an aha! when they let go of their off-irrational inhibitions, real or imaginary.
