The things that Chicks dig

This is the thread for all of the rumors to be debunked once and for all. What exactly do women dig?

Do they dig scars, men in uniform, power, money, cars? What exactly do women dig and why?

Guys, put down what you think chicks dig and let's see if we're correct.

I think Chicks dig guys with dogs and trucks.

 

Chicks dig guys who know more of Pi than they do.

 

Meh, dogs are fine, but I'm a cat person. And I don't care one way or another if a guy has a truck or not.

What is pi ()? Who first used pi? How do you find its value? What is it for? How many digits is it?

By definition, pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. Pi is always the same number, no matter which circle you use to compute it.
For the sake of usefulness people often need to approximate pi. For many purposes you can use 3.14159, which is really pretty good, but if you want a better approximation you can use a computer to get it. Here's pi to many more digits: 3.14159265358979323846.

The area of a circle is pi times the square of the length of the radius, or "pi r squared":


A = pi*r^2
A very brief history of pi

Pi is a very old number. We know that the Egyptians and the Babylonians knew about the existence of the constant ratio pi, although they didn't know its value nearly as well as we do today. They had figured out that it was a little bigger than 3; the Babylonians had an approximation of 3 1/8 (3.125), and the Egyptians had a somewhat worse approximation of 4*(8/9)^2 (about 3.160484), which is slightly less accurate and much harder to work with. For more, see A History of Pi by Petr Beckman (Dorset Press).
The modern symbol for pi [] was first used in our modern sense in 1706 by William Jones, who wrote:


There are various other ways of finding the Lengths or Areas of particular Curve Lines, or Planes, which may very much facilitate the Practice; as for instance, in the Circle, the Diameter is to the Circumference as 1 to (16/5 - 4/239) - 1/3(16/5^3 - 4/239^3) + ... = 3.14159... = (see A History of Mathematical Notation by Florian Cajori).
Pi (rather than some other Greek letter like Alpha or Omega) was chosen as the letter to represent the number 3.141592... because the letter [] in Greek, pronounced like our letter 'p', stands for 'perimeter'.

About Pi
Pi is an infinite decimal. Unlike numbers such as 3, 9.876, and 4.5, which have finitely many nonzero numbers to the right of the decimal place, pi has infinitely many numbers to the right of the decimal point.
If you write pi down in decimal form, the numbers to the right of the 0 never repeat in a pattern. Some infinite decimals do have patterns - for instance, the infinite decimal .3333333... has all 3's to the right of the decimal point, and in the number .123456789123456789123456789... the sequence 123456789 is repeated. However, although many mathematicians have tried to find it, no repeating pattern for pi has been discovered - in fact, in 1768 Johann Lambert proved that there cannot be any such repeating pattern.

As a number that cannot be written as a repeating decimal or a finite decimal (you can never get to the end of it) pi is irrational: it cannot be written as a fraction (the ratio of two integers).

Pi shows up in some unexpected places like probability, and the 'famous five' equation connecting the five most important numbers in mathematics, 0, 1, e, pi, and i: e^(i*pi) + 1 = 0.

 

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm pi

 

Haha, funny, I don't dig any of those things. And VadersLaMent's explanation of pi made me dizzy and frightened me. Math does that.

 

That's hot, Montie.

 

Me. Chicks did me.

Ask them, any of them, they'll tell you.


GO on, ask.

 

No, they didn't.

Dani, what do you think about him? Please keep in mind that he's a member of the Blue Yoda Society.

EDIT -- And it seems that you've answered already.

AYBABTU?

 

Ha!

 

Chicks dig guys who have scars...chicks dig guys who have $$$!

 

I always thought the tale was that chicks dig guys with SARS. I was wondering why I couldn't get any.

AYBABTU?

 

This is even hotter:

Classic Pumpkin Pie

"Ginger whipped cream is the crowning glory to this old-fashioned pumpkin pie made with whipping cream."
Yields 1 - 9 inch pie.

Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Cook Time: 50 Minutes
Ready In: 1 Hour 30 Minutes

CRUST
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter
3 tablespoons cold water
FILLING
2 eggs
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon salt
GINGER WHIPPED CREAM
1/2 cup chilled whipping cream
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger



1 Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Stir together flour and salt in large bowl; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in enough water, with fork, just until flour is moistened. Shape dough into a ball; flatten ball slightly.
2 Roll out ball on lightly floured surface into 12-inch circle. Fold into quarters. Place dough into 9-inch pie pan; unfold, pressing firmly against bottom and sides. Crimp or flute edge. Set aside.
3 Beat eggs at medium speed in large mixer bowl until thick and lemon-colored (2 to 3 minutes). Add all remaining filling ingredients; beat until well mixed (1 to 2 minutes).
4 Pour filling ingredients into prepared crust. Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Continue baking for 40 to 50 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely.
5 Beat 1/2 cup chilled whipping cream at high speed in chilled small bowl, scraping bowl often, until soft peaks form. Add 1 tablespoon sugar and ginger. Continue beating until stiff peaks form (1 to 2 minutes).
6 To serve, top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream. Sprinkle with additional ground ginger, if desired. Store pie and whipped cream refrigerated.


Makes 8 servings

 

are you trying to fatten me up?

 

You know a lot about pie!

 

"are you trying to fatten me up?"

You mean more?

AYBABTU?

 

Yeah. More

 

thats 0 and 1 so far DarthNomis

"WE DIG DARTHNOMIS....WE REALLY DO!!!!"

See...I told ya.

FateNaberrie is just in denial of her chickiness.

5 to 1 in favor of me.

 

We need Psionic chicken here, to put Nomis in his place.

 

Psionic chicken would definetley vote for me....if you know what I knew. wink wink, hint hint.

 

if you know what I knew

dude, thats just creepy, stop it please.
