I wouldn't mind trying a steak and kidney pie one of these days.

The problem with chicken pot pie is that people tend to put carrots in them.

I tried leaving the carrots out, but my husband balked.

That I understand. My problem with pot pies is that people seem to insist on putting peas in them.

Someone peaed in your pie? GROSS!

[vakkotaur.livejournal.com]

Quite!

Holy Crap! WTF did you find a Mr. Yuk sticker? I remember those from when I was a kid.

Ok. I'm still a kid, but I mean a not-fully-grown kid...

Google image search is my friend, at least eventually.

Here, have a bit of 1971 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLsONa3gKIQ).

Pi vs Pie

I have that Pinky and the Brain t-shirt! Sadly, it's the worse for wear.

Chudnovsky's methods are actually faster than Ramanujan's, but they calculate 1/pi, so you have to stand on your head to get the correct digits.

The others would be Whipped Cream, Marshmallow Fluff, and Spanish Fly.

Two, actually.

Strawberry.


and...

Strawberry Rhubarb... which happens to be my third favorite, behind Apple and Pumpkin.

LJ only permits fifteen options per question so a couple items had to go, alas.

The best method of calculating pi is to memorize it to 70 places like I did.

I know pi to a thousand places, yo!

(OK, not really, but I'm still really white and nerdy. And 70's close.)

I, for one, do not view either carrots or peas in pot pie as being a problem. Onions, however, are definitely a problem.

My father always claimed that he only liked two kinds of pie - hot and cold.

<Norman_Clegg> I like it.

[vakkotaur.livejournal.com]

Imagine, hot and cold running pie!

Re: <Norman_Clegg> I like it.

You left out my favourite option and probably the best one - The best method of calculating pi is Googling the damn thing! That's what the Internet is for!

Well, that and porn.
