A Twitter hashtag that mathematically pokes fun at the twice-impeached, thrice-married Donald J. Trump, by divining or predicting what he would do based on his idiocies and idiosyncrasies, which have kept thousands of reporters, writers, and comedians worldwide happy (and also lazy)—they were blessed with daily free juicy materials from the Pinocchio-in-Chief turned Pharisee-in-Chief to write about.
#TrumpMath parodies Trump’s fake news, which revolves around dishonesty, hypocrisy, racism, supremacism, vanity, and xenophobia, among other things.

When the number π is so proactive and paranoid in marketing herself so that she would constantly remain in the mathematical consciousness of mathematicians and math educators, while making herself conspicuous in the eyes of the lay public to be part of popular culture.
To avoid being disrupted or eclipsed by other mathematical constants, all vying to get the attention of the mathematical brethren, it’s not surprising to witness pi on fire 24/7/365.

A short horizon line between two numbers—year born and year dead—that represents an entire life from birth to death, which could last for decades, years, days, and minutes that the person buried six feet below ground was given.
A dash shows how short our finite or limited life is on this side of eternity, which can’t be added or multiplied, much less saved up to be used in the future.

When food and drink companies leverage on the health consciousness of its customers to claim that their products are free of additives, colorings, and seasonings; or have zero sugar, zero animal fat, and zero monosodium glutamate (MSG), which could cause cancer-prone diseases.
Zero marketing has permeated many businesses and industries: from banks and financial institutions offering zero interest rates or zero downpayment to food manufacturers offering zero cancerous or life-shortening products.

Composing a short story (factoid, haiku, joke, …), or posing a math problem, using 140 (or 280) characters or less on or about the number π.
Three examples of Twitter Pi are:
a) A haiku entitled “Pi in the Sky” goes like this:
Pi is three only.
For the Bible tells me so!
I shalt not doubt it.
b) Trump promised MAGA evangelicals in red-pilled states: “If re-elected, I’d decree π to be 3 for all true-blue patriots.”
c) A math toughie: If 1! = 1 and 2! = 2, show that (1/2)! = 1/2 √π and (–1/2)! = √π.

Short for “Pi Insomnia.” When someone struggles to sleep after listening to a math lesson, or reading a geometry book, that repeatedly mentions the irrational number π.
Guesstimate how many folks worldwide suffer even from a mild form of pisomnia, where presently there seems to be no cure for the mathematically induced mental condition.

Two inequality or “woke math” symbols, formed by the portmanteau symbols for the equals (=) symbol and the less than (<) and greater than (>) signs—they are read as “less than or equal to” and “greater than or equal to.”
