Complex Pi

When the trip of the complex number π + iπ to the Argand plane was a disappointment, as it failed to secure an exact position on it—both real and imaginary axes couldn’t accurately accommodate the irrational π on them.
Complex pi has come to terms that it can only be located approximately when students try to plot it on the Argand or complex plane.

Reel Pi

When movies on math, or those that depict the odd behaviours of oft-mad mathematicians or idiot-savants, never fail to mention the number π and some of its magical properties.
With pi being part of pop culture, it’s not surprising to hear mathophobic actors in Hollywood complain about reel pi, as it reminds them of their bad experiences of school math, especially if they’d flunked the subject several times prior to making it big in the entertainment industry.

Pi Junk

Used books on or about the number π; dismantled exhibits on the beauty, ubiquity, and utility of π held on Pi Day by students in school or at shopping malls; or discarded pi-related projects or artworks by artists or math educators in a museum.

Trump as House Speaker

When some morally bankrupt ultra-MAGA lawmakers are entertaining the idea to nominate their ex-Commander in Cheat as the next House Speaker (who doesn’t have to be an elected member of Congress) as days-long bitching, backstabbing, and infighting continue to plague the polarized GOP.
As his politically inept and serially corrupt yes-men and women can’t see eye to eye with the moderates, the Pinocchio-in-Chief is relishing at their far-fetched or idiotic proposal of “Trump as House Speaker.”

Toilet Pi

When you use the free time while doing your business to practice memorizing the digits of the decimal number π.
As a criterion to joining his local Pi Club, which requires all members to be able to recite the first hundred digits of π, Paul is using his precious toilet pi moments to getting closer to being a pi member.

Piroscope

The art of predicting someone’s personality based on the number of digits of the number π they remember or have painfully committed to memory, or on a certain fraction or expression they use to approximate the irrational number.
In pseudo-evangelical circles or conspiratorial quarters, it’s not too difficult to match the piroscope sign MAGA patriots belong to.

Pidoku

The act of acquiring books and journal or periodical articles on the number π but letting them pile up at home without reading them.
