There's a upper and lower case Pi?
It ain't math; it's greek.
Let me try something else:
Natter 17 = 4² - cos(π): Could This Be Mathier, Nilly?

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

Or we can try it with Times:
Natter 17 = 4² - cos(π): Could This Be Mathier, Nilly?
The Times pi looks much better to me.
Helping with the general entertaining nitpickery - maybe "Nilly, could this be mathier?" instead? Sounds more natural, you know?
This is deeply funny.
Just another day on Buffista Island...
Agree on the Times pi, plus it's a mathy pun!
This is deeply funny.
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?

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