Pi Dance

When the three parts that make up the number π decide to perform a Michael Jackson’s moonwalk in front of a geeky audience.
With three permissible orientations of the legs (/, |, \), show that there are at most six possible movements of the pi dance.

Pi Poop

Mean or shitty statements uttered at the number π by other constants, or by some real and imaginary numbers, that are numerically or symbolically envious or jealous of her popularity or fame in many branches of mathematics.
“Pi is a chameleon that changes its value according to the situation she is in to appear ever useful.” or “π is an overrated irrational number that has bedeviled so many vain mathematicians, who have spent much of their working lives misusing obscene amounts of computer power to reveal as many digits of hers as possible.” or “Pi wants to be selfishly associated with the circle, which is arguably the most beautiful curve in mathematics.” Are these rantings mere pi poop to discredit the most beloved constant in mathematics?

Pi Politics

The use of different values for the irrational number π to poke fun at the differing polarized views parroted by mostly hypothetical or morally bankrupt politicians in the land of senseless deaths, which occur practically every day due to zero public ban on guns.
An example of pi politics among ultra-MAGA voters is:

Trump: π = 22/7 (because it is the ratio of the circumference to the diameter of any circle).

Pence: π = 3 (because the Bible tells me so).

DeSantis: π = x, where x is awaiting final approval by “woke” censors.

Pi of Life

When mathematics can not only help someone to be logical and rational, but it can also help them to be humble, gracious, resilient, joyful, and happy—they can experience the hidden happiness of mathematics and the good life.
If mathematics is the key to understanding the workings of the universe, schools and teachers play a key role in ensuring that students are exposed to the pi of life—when they can experience joy and happiness through math.

ocu-pied

What the Papa John's Pizza employee yells
when you walk in on him in the bathroom cause he forgot to lock the door. He is naked and his clothes are in piled in the corner.
When his mom walked in the bathroom and caught him beating off, he yelled
ocu-pie-d, ocu-pie-d

Pi in the Sky

When the value of the mathematical pi is exactly three, which can be inferred from two verses in the Bible (1 Kings 7:23 and 2 Chronicles 4:2)—the “biblical pi” contradicts the mathematicians’ value, which is about 3.14 or 22/7.
How does one reconcile the value of pi in the sky with the irrational value of pi on earth? Could theologians or theomaticians explain the missing “0.14” bit to the mathematical brethren?
