Exercise is Useless for Losing Weight, But...

The US is in an obesity epidemic. If you aren't obese, you are still most likely a bit overweight. How do we lose weight? For years, we've been told it's a matter of diet and exercise. More updated research tells us diet is much more likely to work than exercise, and Kurzgesagt explains why.

But that doesn't mean you can swear off exercise, far from it. Exercise may be only a minor factor in losing weight, but it's a major factor in just about everything else to do with your health. So if you want to lose weight, you'll have to pay attention to what and how much you eat. All of us need to exercise, no matter what our weight is, due to the constant expenditure of energy our bodies have. That expenditure must be channeled in the right direction.

My school is having a pi-fest. Even the couches in our lounge are arranged in the shape of pi. I guess that's what I get for going to a math and science school, huh?

And on that note, I think I caught my friend singing this earlier.

I'm really pissed because right when I started reading this article, it turned to 2:00.
And by the time I realized it, it was 10 seconds too late....

If the state of Indiana had had their way in 1897 (or the state of Alabama according to Mark Boslough's joke of the same context), then they would have reset the value of pi to 3.0. Then what would we have done?

It's just to bad we can't have a phi day.

Hard N Phirm (Chris Hardwick and Mike Phirman) are comedic masterminds as well as self-proclaimed comedy nerds. They did this song during their Comedy Central special which is currently avaialble on iTunes.

And "Peach" sounds like she's a little over-ripe and in need of a good pluckin'!
