I did not celebrate pi day, but someone at my school was walking around with a paper taped to him saying "happy pi day"

that poor soul

Poor soul? He was CELEBRATING PI DAY! AAAHHH! HOW CAN THAT MAKE HIM A POOR SOUL? *gasp* *dies*

no_one? NO_ONE? NO_ONE! WAKE UP! SPEAK TO ME, NO_ONE!
Oh... wait, no. He's fine. He will post again! And did!

I came BACK! :) (faint attacks are scary)

of course i did! i made a shirt just for this day. Pi symbol on front, Pi on back (50 or so digits), and a bunch of "happy blah blah" phrases.

Now, why didn't I think of that?
Hang on, we have to wear uniform :(

Yeehaaaa! 11th Post!

Look in the Happy Pi Day! news item's comments for a description of my day. :) I'm too lazy to retype/copyt & paste.

BTW: WTF is a bippy?

Bippy?

Whatever it is... I don't want to know. If I have a bippy, I think I should keep it. :)

i thimk it refers to your rear end. don't u remember an 8th grade teacher who used to say, "You bet your bippy!"? (lol)

Yes, I remember her... I was half-joking... (I shoulda put j/k.)

I thought you woulda had your own login. You checking out my proggies?

Wait a minute... I'll bet you just made that login... That's a really high user number...

Yeah, anybody in the 40000 range just made their username :)

If they are that new they most likely wouldn't post soon after they registered...

At the moment we have 40113 user accounts. Determined though good old guess-n-check!

Eeh, his is 41580... You just found one that was deleted. :p

I only made my username to post - you don't need a username to d'load... Hence the high number.

And yes, I beleive that's why I used that as my Subject... Or maybe not... *Clicks back* Doh! That was Post! (lol)

Why wouldnt I celebrate the largest nerdic holdiday of the year :)

Are there any more that I don't know about? (I should celebrate them too)

OMG, does anybody read Foxtrot in the comic strip? Jason knows 13375p34k!

I love that comic! My favorite one went kinda like this...

His sister was doing her homework and had a book in front of her...Jason said: "Hey, I read this book! I thought the author got off on some odd tangents for a lot of it. But overall, most of the points were good, and it raised some interesting parallels. I likedhow it came full circle in the last chapter." Jason's Sister: "Jason, It's a MATH BOOK!!" Jason: "2*Pi*r! Woo! What an ending!"

Lol. Appropriate for Pi Day... Was it on a Pi Day?

And yes, I got the jokes in what he said.

I LOVE FoxTrot! My favorate one is like this...

The father is holding his coffee mug and reading one of the several slips of paper in it. The one he is currently reading is in Javascript. In the next frame, he tells Jason, "All I wanted was a cup of coffee...", and Jason responds "Then why did you ask for a cup of Java?"

Then the slips of paper have Java code, not Javascript... Unless Jason would be that ignorant. :p

I read it before I knew how to program (before I had a TI Graphing Calculator). I would not have recognized the language. :\

Well, he ASKED for JAVA, not JAVASCRIPT. :p

Well, EXCUSE me!

Javascript <> Java

Oh, and you should never capitilise JAVA.
It can be said to stand for 'Just Another Vague Acronym' :)

I did that since <b>doesn't work.</b>

It was Java, if I remember correctly (I luv that strip, mon)

I remember that comic. I love Foxtrot. I had some favorites, but I can't remember them off the top of my head ...

1 |\|0 1 54(/\) 1+.

too bad user friendly isn't very good most of the time...

Get a microphone and some speech recognition software... It won't be quite the same as that, but still better than doing everything by keyboard/mouse...

Also, since when do spellcheckers know 133+5|°34|< ? And correcting his grammar like that... Whoa... (and if that degree symbol ° doesn't work... I'll ... I'll ... I'll use radians from now on!)

"Banana tree fell open ended golf course"
Speech recognition is great - if you can be bothered to train it! (I use Microsoft Office XP for that)

If you mean www.userfriendly.org, I think that's a great web comic!!!

which is what I meant...
