So this guy presents quite the compelling argument against pi. I'm sold on it and ready to adopt tau. Decide for yourself:

Why do people use Pi instead of Tau in the first place?
you awaken in the intestinal tract of satan. you must defeat the hydra to escape. your only weapon is righteous anger.

Interesting, but I still like pi more. It sounds far tastier and I'm already used to it.
And there's a mosquito in my room :( Killed it~

Sorry, I'm not involved in any sort of mathematics, so it doesn't really effect me.
Or, to put it more politely, "Neener neener."

I had to stop reading when it started talking about radians. I dislike radians for some reason.
That aside, I thought this was going to be some crazy new number, but it's just 2π? I am underwhelmed.

It's more a point about how Pi should never have been used in the first place, and how Tau makes much more sense.
