So did you celebrate? Next opportunity is 2016.

?????????

3*3=9, but I'm not sure how to celebrate aside from doing a multiplication table in my head

 

[Seducer of the Homeless]

i can only think multiplication

 

[Ermine]

square day isn't as fun as pi day.

 

[dwags222]

i'm throwing a huge party on 11-11-11 which will feature turtles and orange jello. i first planned it about 5 or 6 years ago, but nearly forgot all about it. be there.

Pi day is an annual event. You only get nine square days a century.

Anyway, pi day is actually saturday next week. How should we celebrate?

 

[inquiringF]

3/3/09, 3 is the square root of 9—in other words, 3[2] = 3 x 3 = 9.

There's no reason to celebrate. It's just a date, nothing more or less. I've never understood why some people care so much.

If people didn't make up a few arbitrary events to celebrate every year, there would be no celebration, and all the ESFJs would be very sad.

Since all the traditional holidays have been corrupted by the so-called society, we nerds are left to invent our own.

 

[Melkor]

How about we suffer each day individually and find more fruitful means of creativity?

I would prefer a world without celebrations... The only benefit from them is the school holidays.

You have inspired me.

Quick, we must make up more holidays! Think people, think!

How about if YOU suffer each day individually, and I'LL find more creative ways of torturing you?

Yes, very good idea.

 

[Seducer of the Homeless]

Christma....dammit. valenti...bollocks....

 

[FF]

Christma....dammit. valenti...bollocks....

Honestly.

I love Halloween, because on that day, I actually have an excuse to dress all gothic and pretty, and no one can say anything about it

Friday the 13th is always good too...because even though everyone else hates it, good things happen to me on that day

But I really want to make up some holidays. Some day when I could give myself an excuse to do something that society normally would not allow me to do.

But what do I want to do and when? Hmm...

 

[Inappropriate Behavior]

I'll celebrate Dec 21 2012. Or rather i'll call up a few paranoid aquaintences and ask "So when is the world ending again?"

 

[Seducer of the Homeless]

fast, do you not celebrate Depheche Mode's inception date or something?

 

[inquiringF]

How is it not favorable to increment uniqueness to a day? You want each day to be bland inane without reason? We create the excitement each day, but these celebrations motivate us to act more. Aberrant days are fun.

 

[FF]

fast, do you not celebrate Depeche Mode's inception date or something?

No...but I do celebrate Dave Gahan and Martin Gore's birthdays

One year I drew a happy birthday picture on Dave Gahan's birthday, and sent it to him via the official website. I hope he really saw it...it was an awesome drawing

 

[Seducer of the Homeless]

most bands do read fan mail

 

[Sugarpop]

No...but I do celebrate Dave Gahan and Martin Gore's birthdays

That leaves out that skinny, glass-eyed fellow. What about him? In fact, according to wikipedia, there are two former members too. What about them?

Alan Wilder... (former member) yeah, I should celebrate his b-day too. Although I would have to wait another 10 months for that one...I love Alan. He'll probably be the most likely to read fanmail too.

Vince Clarke was only in the band for a year...so, he doesn't really count.

And although Andrew "Fletch" Fletcher (glass-eyed fellow) does contribute to the band a bit, it's definitely not as much as Dave and Martin do.

In live performances, Fletch mainly claps. Plays little ditties on the synth as well...but mainly claps.

 

[Seducer of the Homeless]

who gave him the Clap?

 

[Melkor]

How about if YOU suffer each day individually, and I'LL find more creative ways of torturing you?

Yes, very good idea.

I''ll let you torture me all day if you wear leather while doing so..


I am also in the 'fuck all celebrations' boat.

I do not appreciate this information.

Excellent for you, since leather is my absolute favorite thing to wear.

Really, people, it is. Buy me a leather jacket and I'll love you forever

 

[Seducer of the Homeless]

...you know Rob Halford? course you do....

Hell Bent on Leather

Fast i am afraid you aren't his type...

...but Morgoth, aah....enjoy.....

 

[Sugarpop]

How will you spend you pi day? Will it, by any chance, involve... Pie?

I like homophones. That would also be the name of the all-gay band - wherein all members dress the same and play the same instrument - I plan to be the manager of in an unspecific future.

You're totally a swede.

Saturday was pi-day. It transpired uneventfully. None of the shops I visited could supply any actual pies, and none of the salespeople knew why I asked.

I didn't get 3-3-09 until I heard it on the Rachel Maddow show. But meh, holidays are too arbitrary. Most of the time I look forward for the day off.

 

[Atriamax]

Egyptian pi (3.16) day in Math today. Mmm

 

[Chronomar]

Anyone celebrate "mole" day?

1 mole = 6.022 x 10^23

(a chemistry unit).

I know I did. With my chemistry teacher. Who is my best friend. I'll shut up now and fight the urge to delete this for a few hours...

Of course.

How do you go about celebrating?

 

[Ogion]

Haha, oh my. Why the need for arbitrary explanations? Why not just celebrate every day you can get free?

Btw, i'm probably be at least a little bit celebraty shortly after midwinter 2012. Why you ask? Well, it's my brithday But i most def. won't have any thoughts on "Is 2012 the last year?"
