This is the worst meme format.

Couldn't disagree harder. One of the funniest lines in the MCU because it's so unexpected. Everyone does love Marvin Gaye, even super villains.

Maybe to elaborate: Its the worst format because its used for all kinds of things that are not "out of line". The original dialogue fit well to it and I liked the scene, but how is it out of line to make a silly numbers joke?

Now if you made some politically incorrect joke with it, sure. But this, no, terrible execution.

Maybe if you know the movie but for someone who doesn't know the original quote, this format this looks weird and makes no sense.

Maybe if you know the movie

How’d I do?

g is a constant with units, so it can be expressed by different numbers. I think this works better with pie, 3.14, and 2.72. Unless the original quote uses "pig"…

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Ya. Also the joke doesn't really work unless there is some other meaning for the sentence "pig without 3.14"

[–] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago

Thanks. I hate it

[–] [email protected] 16 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Nah, 13.12 - 3.14 = 9.98

I don't get it, could someone please explain?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

g is the acceleration applied by Earth's gravitational force (for masses much smaller than Earth's, that are pretty close, i.e. essentially everything you typically interact with) and is approximately 9.81 m/s^2

A pig without pi is gravity.

Remove "pi" from pig and you get "g". And g = 9.81

Thanks!

New canon for black hole formation just dropped. Get the researchers on this stat!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 7 months ago

Here I was like trying to square pi to see if that was the joke...
