that’s it, I can’t take this anymore. I’m so fucking done. I feel like a non-Christian person in fucking December. Listen, people: the Ides of March is a FINE holiday, it’s fun and nerdy, I like it – but I’ve seen like 6 memes for it in the last 3 days and not a Single one for its sibling nerd holiday, MARCH 14, aka 3/14, aka

PI DAY

  • 3/14, optimized at 1:59 and 26 seconds, AM or PM (3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399… that’s as far as I ever memorized).
  • Celebrations around the world – as is ONLY appropriate for the one and only celebration of the constant ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter!
  • And the radius to its area, and the radius of a sphere to its volume and surface area, AND one of the key five numbers in Euler’s Identity, aka e^(iπ) + 1 = 0, aka the sexiest, simplest mathematical equation in the world.
  • There’s going to be an HOUR-LONG LUNAR ECLIPSE this year, visible throughout East Asia, Australia, North and South America, and most of Africa and Europe!
  • It’s even Albert Einstein’s birthday!
  • Is Pi Day underrepresented because math is continuously viewed as the subject it’s culturally acceptable to hate, where even “boring” history and “pretentious” literature can be lauded? Does every holiday need a centuries-famous play in order to get attention these days? DO PEOPLE NOT WANT AN EXCUSE TO EAT SAVORY PIES FOR DINNER (PIZZA, SHEPHERD’S PIE, ETC) AND SWEET PIES OF FRUIT AND/OR CHOCOLATE FOR DESSERT??

So help me god I’m going to start making a new Pi Day meme every time I see an Ides of March meme. I’m going to blaze them. PRETENDING TO KILL A DICTATOR IS FUN, BUT IT IS A TREAT BEST PAIRED WITH THE ELEVATION OF SCIENCE!
