Kid Reciting 250 Digits Of Pi Totally Making It Up Past Digit 20

Published Friday, March 14th, 2025

At local Nathanael Greene Middle School, sources have ascertained that the annoying kid reciting 250 digits of pi is definitely making it up after digit 20.

“Listen, guys, I know 250 digits of pi. I’m gonna start now: three point one four one five nine two six five three five eight nine seven nine three two three eight four six,” said sixth-grader Jeremy Douglass, confidently rattling off the first 20 digits to a circle of mostly unimpressed peers who were about to realize that his knowledge of pi ended exactly there. “Um, zero one two three four five six seven eight nine eight nine eight nine eight nine four four four four four…”

“Three one four three one four eight eight eight two nine two one two two two two one one nine eight seven six five four three two one zero,” continued Jeremy, who was totally making those numbers up on the spot. “Two four six eight two two three four, um, nine one one nine one one zero zero seven four zero one…I could keep going all day, guys. I might even be able to make it to five hundred digits.”

At press time, that weird girl brought in rhubarb pie for the school Pi Day party.
