When you buy random objects from waitress, like a set of pies, and then never collect on them, or never really anticipate you will get them.

The many whys that promoted mathematicians and math educators (or even nonmath people like artists and creatives) to toy around with the number π for centuries, be it to prove a beautiful theorem, promote the constant in popular culture (art, fashion, perfume, cellphone, movie, and the like), collaborate as a community, challenge tradition, leave a mathematical legacy, or show their intelligence.
Like art and philosophy, pi mesmerizes both math and nonmath people in every corner of the globe. No wonder, those outside the pi community would often ask: What’s the point of pi?

When the number π flirted around and even got intimate with some fellow numerical constants or buddies, which makes her feel or look like a loose or unfaithful number in their eyes, yet she was not forsaken nor rejected by her Creator.
Like the prophet Hosea’s adulterous wife who was shown love again as he bought her back as a prostitute, promiscuous pi too found freedom from her toxic relationships as she regained her dignity and self-worth, and found forgiveness and love.

A three-star-plus hotel that is popular among lower-middle-class tourists, who want a free-and-easy experience, without being pressured to join local group tours to visit oft-spiritually unclean or demonic places of worship and retail shops (which promise to give a percentage of their profits to the tour guide).
The “fine” city of Singapore plans to build more pi star hotels in coming years to target travelers from emerging economies, who couldn’t afford to stay in a five-star hotel, yet wished to receive a perceived first-class visitors’ treatment.

When π, the world’s most arguably beloved or beautiful mathematical constant, weighs the pros and cons of revealing too little or too much about herself in order to maximize her universal appeal, while minimizing any negative publicity or fallout, in popular culture.
With fierce fellow competitors like e and 𝜙 watching her every move to outwit her, it’s no surprise that π is perpetually paranoid—pi calculus remains a necessary evil for her to maintain her competitive edge.

A phrase originating from the competitive video game Valorant meaning someone is about to have a Kill/Death ratio of 3/14, or pi. Because the scoreboard shows all individual kills, deaths, and assists in a lobby, when a teammate is doing very poorly they will be on pi watch.
