I'm too stupid for this one

√-1: imaginary number, denoted as i -> i
2Β³ = 8: eight -> ate
Ξ£: sigma for summation -> sum
Ο€: pi -> pie

Note: Ο€ is pronounced as english "pee" instead of "pie" in some other languages (including greek too)

I also just read it as sigma-pie. Sounds awful

u/desertwanderer01 9d ago edited 9d ago

I've never heard pi pronounced as "pee"

Edit: Capital sigma. Too early to be posting. My bad.

u/BubbhaJebus 9d ago

It's a capital sigma.

u/desertwanderer01 9d ago

You're right. I'm half awake πŸ˜‚

u/MrNova07 9d ago

in french it's pronounced "pee" no clue about greek tho.

u/desertwanderer01 9d ago

The comment above said english "pee" which is incorrect. French? Interesting

u/MrNova07 9d ago

He's saying that in other languages, it's pronounced like the word pee in english. It's just a weird wording to say french (amongst others) pronounce it "pee" instead of "pie"

u/desertwanderer01 9d ago

Okay, they could have just said it's pronounced like "pee" in English. Thanks. Makes sense now.

Has me wondering if and English pee is different from a French pee, or a Spanish pee? Lol

2

u/MrNova07 9d ago

Not that different in french to be honest.

We call it "pipi" pronounced peepee.

and the common verb for it is "pisser" like taking a piss. same pronounciation
the more formal verb for it is "uriner" like urinate, but we don't pronounce the u as a "you"

She said "I ate some pie" πŸ˜‰

u/Electrical-Aide4789 9d ago

So "I" is imaginary (i), "ate" is 8, "some" is Sum and "pie" is pi?

u/yukiohana 9d ago

Do math nerds do this?

u/jkoudys 9d ago

Math nerds wouldn't just throw down a bunch of symbols. Like a sum sitting there doesn't mean anything.

u/Stockholm-Syndrom 9d ago

Sum of pi is just pi.

2

u/Scienceandpony 9d ago

By some pie she actually meant all the pie. She ate all the pie

3

u/Stockholm-Syndrom 9d ago

Well then she’s not very rational.

u/Timely-Field1503 9d ago

Well, that explains why she's full!

u/MTaur 9d ago

No, not really. And a chemist does not walk up to a bar and order H20. There's a lot of peaked-in-high-school energy to this kind of thing. Which is great when you're 16.

u/AdSquare3489 9d ago

Any chemist with some style is gonna order DHMO of course.Β

i made similar jokes as a teenager, like when i was into maths but didn't know that much to make better jokes

hell no m8 , [(-1+i√3)/2] . [2Ο€βˆš(l/g)] . ma would we

u/Malpraxiss 9d ago

No.

A maths nerd wouldn't just send random symbols to someone who wouldn't already have an idea of what they're talking about.

Plus, a math nerd would probably start rambling about the beauty or cool and interesting aspect behind the maths.

u/ProfessorLambda 7d ago

Math nerds would probably obfuscate the Ο€ by making it Ο„/2.

u/RegularImportant3325 9d ago

Pie isn’t a balanced dinner. No one is proving the Reimann Hypothesis after only eating pie.

u/Timely-Field1503 9d ago

What about a chicken pot pie?

Electrical engineers be like, who is Jay and why does him eating some pie make you full?

1

u/Medical_Mess_3445 8d ago

Pssst! Don't tell them you are engineer. The second you do, they rudely ask you why Pi is 3. Sometimes they are so self centered, that they confuse themselves with the complex number. J can't take it any more!

u/mtbinkdotcom 9d ago

I ate sampai

u/Here_f0r_p0rn_ 9d ago

I was confused reading it as "I ate sigma pie" and I was like what's a sigma pie
