its AM and PM, unless you don't use the 12 hour clock

I guess technically it would be considered AM though

There were stalls all over campus today (day early since 14th is Saturday) handing out free slices of pie.

Good way to end the week. Mmmmm sugar coma.

But Pi isn't 1.43!

But I will accept the American format because using the British format we would never get a Pi day!

There is only one number associated with pi....

But remember boys and girls, for today, the cake is a lie, pi is the truth!

I didn't realise in the American format that you got so many digits of Pi today, that isn't going to happen again for 100 years!

Ok, seriously Taidis.

There is only one concept of math. 2+2 does not equal 5 (unless you work for the government, then you can make up your own ***). Pi only has one number associated with it, and it's the circumference of a circle. It always have been 3.1415.... and it will always be 3.1415....

I don't know if you are just trolling or really being stupid.

What the hell are you talking about?

It's even said in the first *** post of this thread.

I appologize, I misread what you said:

I thought you meant that there is a different format for the math, not the date itself.

Yeah, sorry if I got a bit aggressive in response there, it was sort of the, you're either trolling or an idiot thing. I was making reference to how we don't use the MM/DD/YY format so we never have a 3/14.

Yeah, I knew that, I deal with international clients all of the time, I guess I'm used to it, and it didn't click automatically what you said. I have to deal with the "My country is better than the American System" *** all of the time, and I guess seeing "American System" bit coming from a Brit kindof ticked me off for no apparent reason.

I was a little aggressive too. I'm sorry.

Yay for Pi Day! (Yay for any day that gives me an excuse to eat pie, honestly.)

Anyways, whatever. I made my favorite pie today, blackberry pie!




If you love blackberry pie, you're right on! And if you don't love blackberry pie, well don't feel bad, it's a free country, I can't force you to have good taste you know.

And if you've never tried blackberry pie, here's the best ever recipe!
