Hat Size

All the news from the peanut gallery and where all the nasty trash talk fails miserably.

Hat Size

#1

Post by Animal »

I heard on the news that Neil deGrass Tyson (sp?) sent out a tweet today telling people that if you take a cloth tape and measure around your head, then take that measurement and divide it by Pi (3.14159 for some of you) you get your hat size.

I just thought i would pass that along. I love you.

The circumference of your head divided by pi is the diameter of your head. Your astonishing fact is that your hat size is related to your head size.

I'm a Precision Metal Fabricator by trade. I know how to calculate the diameter of something.

And the diameter of your head keeps going up....

Just because it took you all these years to how to calculate the diameter of something round don't lump the rest of us into your delusional world.

You hated math didn't you?

well, you window lickers can all thank me when you're sitting in a Buffalo Wild Wings and win a trivia contest because you are the only tools in the place that know how to determine a hat size.

I don't wear hats, so that fact has made no positive influence on my life.

you can always spot a real dummy that can't do math because they don't have a hat on.
