Today is pi day. You know, 3.14… Well, here are some cool things you can do on pi day. You can estimate pi by throwing needles at a tabletop or even by throwing frozen hot dogs (randomly of course). Just don’t throw banannas. Throwing banana creme pies won’t work either.

The other wonderful thing about today is that it is “Talk like a physicist day.” Here is some examples (thanks to Swans on Tea):

Refer to coordinates and coordinate systems. “I got shafted” becomes “I took one up the z-axis”

Any actual personal experience becomes “empirical data.” i.e. a burn on your hand is empirical data that the stove is hot.

You’re not being lazy, you are in your ground state.

You aren’t overweight, you are thermodynamically efficient

And to top it off, it is Einstein’s birthday today.
