It’s March 14th! An excellent day to eat pie and do maths. I might brush up on my geometry and try the NASA Pi Day Challenge.

I thought this Thursday felt particularly irrational

31/4 is weeks away?

3/14 is a weird way to write March 14th, but April 31st is just not happening.

3/14 is much weirder, only around 5% of the global population instantly know what date it refers to. The rest of us have to realise that a USian is the author to make any sense of it.

But it does give you a pi day, so there's that.

In my religion, that's just 1/5. 😉
