Can we please stop the liberal use of malapropism here with the food/pie references when writing about the Raspberry. It's getting a bit overbaked and is starting to leave a sour taste in the mouth. Anyone wanna bite? |

Oh come on, just allow them to express themselves how they choose... it's the yeast you can do! |

Trying to have your cake and eat it too, HoTMetaL? |
| Bob_Robertson Jan 22, 2013 8:16 AM CST |
Pi r^2? No, pie are round. Cake are squared. I'm sure HoTMetaL has been simmering for some time, basting in the flavors of the issue, looking for it to turn over. But no, it's beginning to burn him. This would seem to be a good time to remember, if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. |

Come on, guys. I agree with HoTMetaL. This whole pie bit is getting stale, no matter how you slice it. |

/me blows raspberries at the bad punsters |

Oh shut your pi holes. |
| dinotrac Jan 23, 2013 8:12 AM CST |
Wow, @tc. Why so crusty? Somebody with your considerable communication skills doesn't need to be mean just to make mince meat out of these guys. |

This is starting to look more and more like sour grapes. |
| jdixon Jan 23, 2013 9:48 AM CST |
Most of you here know that I can cook up puns as well as the next person, but for some reason I really don't have an appetite for that with this thread. |
| dinotrac Jan 23, 2013 10:21 AM CST |
@jd - That's fine, so long as you don't stomp away a la mad. |

Quoting:This is starting to look more and more like grapes. What! sour grapes pie!!? who would eat such a thing? :-) |

Quoting:What! sour grapes pie!!? who would eat such a thing? :-) Probably the same folks who think rhubarb and lime and lemon make good pies. (I don't like any of them.) Lemons and limes are sour and people love those pies. Want to bet somebody comes up with a competitor to the Raspberry Pi and names it after another food? I'd bet the Pumpkin Pi or some such thing is just around the corner. |

I'd rather eat sour grape pie than crow. |
| dinotrac Jan 23, 2013 11:35 AM CST |
Mmmm. Rhubarb. |

Quoting:Want to bet somebody comes up with a competitor to the Raspberry Pi and names it after another food? @caitlyn, There is one already called Gooseberry and Introducing Gooseberry |

Please leave the punning to the groan-ups. Thank you. |
| tuxchick Jan 23, 2013 4:36 PM CST |
All this math punning is a sine of madness. |
| gus3 Jan 23, 2013 5:05 PM CST |
Don't try to take this off on a tangent, TC. |
| dinotrac Jan 23, 2013 7:46 PM CST |
@tc -- This is more than I can bear. Perhaps it's time to circle the wagons. |
| tuxchick Jan 23, 2013 9:08 PM CST |
Pi r squared in them wagon circles. |
| dinotrac Jan 23, 2013 10:10 PM CST |
But you only need D if you're appropriately circumferencespect. |
| Bob_Robertson Jan 24, 2013 11:18 AM CST |
TC, Pi r squared? No, Pi are round, cake....wait. Never mind. I seem to have come full circle. |
| dinotrac Jan 24, 2013 5:50 PM CST |
@BR -- Boo. |
| caitlyn Jan 24, 2013 8:31 PM CST |
Surely someone can come up with a new angle on this. |
| telanoc Jan 25, 2013 10:00 AM CST |
Now I understand the term "Industry Pundit" |
| dinotrac Jan 25, 2013 10:19 AM CST |
@telanoc -- Oh, the pain. The pun and the pain. But mostly the pain. |
| caitlyn Jan 25, 2013 11:06 AM CST |
Have a slice of chocolate cream pie and you'll forget the pain. |
