All is well that ends in pizza.

There's a upper and lower case Pi?

I, indeed, could be mathier.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

It ain't math; it's greek.

Let me try something else:

Natter 17 = 4² - cos(π): Could This Be Mathier, Nilly?

t edit I used a helvetica pi, which (as opposed to symbol) everyone should have (I think).

t re-edit Or we can try it with Times:

Natter 17 = 4² - cos(π): Could This Be Mathier, Nilly?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

The Times pi looks much better to me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

This is deeply funny.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Helping with the general entertaining nitpickery - maybe "Nilly, could this be mathier?" instead? Sounds more natural, you know?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

The Times pi looks much better to me.

Seconded.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

This is deeply funny.

Just another day on Buffista Island...

Agree on the Times pi, plus it's a mathy pun!

Choosing a pi font is important business, dammit!

"Nilly, could this be mathier?" is fine with me. But should the comma be replaced with an en-dash? t /ducks

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I vote for the Times pi.

Yes! I had not realised what it lacked, until you mentioned it! Let it be done.
