One simply cannot let this particular day pass without bringing the discussion back to the top!
Happy Pi(e) Day, All...
Now where is that leftover chocolate cake...
Go Hokies!

There is no debate it's Pie. Always has been and always will be.
The eternal equation: Pie = Infinity
Rage, rage against the dying of the pie
Pie isn't going to die.
It's infinity, man.
Why do you think PI is in vPI?? Case closed.
You mean Steak and BJ day right? ;)
I refuse to partake in this heathen celebration. I take my leave.
It's so tempting to downvote all of these silly, confused pie kids but as #teamcake we will always take the high road.
Pie can be adapted to anything. That does not make it superior to cake...
Um.... yes it does. Not the only way it is superior, just another one.
False
Helmets can be adapted to feature hokie stone. Adaptation is not intrinsically a good thing.
(also for example the fish pie in the previous post)
Some people probably like the fish pie. I'd like to try it - Scandinavian I'd guess. I know some people liked the stone helmets. Thai fish cakes are actually one of my favorite "cakes", along with crab "cakes", if you want to claim either as cakes, even though they are patty's. Cheese cake is my favorite cake, even though it is actually made like a pie. Adaptability means flexibility. Not everyone has to like every pie, but there is a perfect pie for everyone.
Ahh, fellow #teamcake brethren. I am home.
Ok. Pie-I mean, er, BYE.

If loving pie is wrong, I don't want to be right.
It's not that loving pie is wrong, it's just that there is a deeper, multi-layered love that is readily available at any purveyor of the confectionary arts.
I thank you. We shall now convene to our local temple: Our Lady of Perpetual Weight Gain aka Carol Lee's Donuts.
You've stumbled into something, amid the powdered sugar and candy sprinkles... Perhaps the answer to the entire question lies in Carol Lee... A fruit-filled confection that is neither "Pie" nor "Cake" yet is fully compatible with both worlds... The perfect symbiotic balance may explain the weight gain and the popularity...
Donuts are to cake and pie what fast food is to real food.
While there are cake and pie variants (regular vs jelly-filled), they simply don't warrant a place in the conversation.
I was afraid someone was going for the American Pie gif after reading that...

I thought you were going to bring up the other National Pie Day.
Btw: Ice cream goes with both, just sayin'.
But mostly with pie, just sayin'.
part of the world domination, I had Groom's pies instead of groom's cake at my wedding.
And that same 9% run 98% of the world!!
The other 90 percent were too busy eating pie to answer a stupid survey.
That makes team cake the 1%.
and see how the 1% is viewed by in society today
Ooooh let's bring politics into a fun thread!
my attempt was at satire humor not intentionally about Politics here.

Dang it I am way off today, stupid spring forward crap
You cakers and piers are so funny, neither of your desserts are edible without a scoop of ice cream making it the true king of dessert.
I DIDN'T THINK THERE WERE OTHER TEAM ICECREAMERS ON HERE. HI!
Represent.
If you had said gelato, you'd have had my attention.
Ice cream is more like something you serve with your pie.
The ice cream is strong on this board.
Let pie and cake have their fight. Our silence makes us stronger.
Ice cream is just a condiment for pie or cake. That is like choosing ketchup in a debate about hot dogs and hamburgers.
Or is pie and cake a condiment to ice cream? You can eat ice cream on it's own whenever you want, but what is apple pie without a scoop of ice cream?
The answer is emptiness. It's straight up emptiness without ice cream.
Can't we all just get along?
Nerd, Nerd, Nerd. My side was picked when I joined this band of pirates, and I assure you I have seldom been accused of not having an opinion. Yesterday, I had chocolate pie, coconut pie, and for lunch, pizza pie. I read an article about Floozy's Pies in Louisa, and, well, generally celebrated pie day. It's just that I do abhor dissention in the ranks, and hate arguing with folks I tend to usually agree with. Call me a pacifist, call me crazy, but don't call me ambivalent. It's pie all the way, big feller, but I'm no fool. In the absence of acceptable pie, I will eat a well made layer cake, I will eat doughnuts, and I will eat Shoney's hot fudge cake, but when it comes to declaring allegiance, it is #teampie.
I thought I could trust you Fish, I really did.
Damn, bro. Cold. Leg for being a funny guy, but secretly? I'm disappointed in you.
I am sick and tired of you purveyors of false dichotomies trying to force me to choose.
I WILL NOT!!!!
Today I will eat Pie for Pi day (obviously) and also cake to celebrate this online community. And I will of course have ice cream with both.
Tomorrow I will research information about type 2 diabetes.
Fight the power -- don't be forced to choose. You can have both.
What about Pie and Beer?
The porter on that list is good stuff
That's what I did. While everyone else was squabblin' - I went to my local pie shop and grabbed a slice of barbecue pulled pork and a slice of Baltimore Bomb, headed to my local watering hole and enjoyed with a cold beer.
It was a good night.
I love pie a lot
It is like the 4 and 2
The answer for all
Nice pieku
Didn't get to post this last night so I figured that I'd do it now. While apple pie will always be my favorite, I had a craving for a coconut cream pie. Made the crust and filling myself along with getting some heavy cream to get gains for my forearms.
While making this delicious pie I had time to reflect and realized that #TeamPie consists of better lovers than #TeamCake. While Pi(e) day allows us to express our love for something else, a Cake day is a narcissistic, and egotistical holiday that tells us we deserve a piece of often overly sweet dessert for being alive for a whole year.
Then again what do I know? I'm just a man that knows how to make a good cream pie.
As cupcakes are a form of cake this picture should end this discussion once and for all. #emmaisteamcake
Really because that looks like a pizza PIE that's she's eating. #EmmaWatson2Episode5#TeamPieStrikesBack
Found the guy from New Jersey.
And the definitive one...
#teamcake
Clearly cake is for making visually appealing art projects. Pie is for eating. Me and my taste buds stand firmly beind #TeamPie
[sighs] This again. Look, if you'll kindly observe the above comment that clearly points out the PI in VPI, I'm sorry but case closed. Done deal. PIE first. PIE now. PIE forever. There is no CAKE in VPI.
Le sigh...
Pie =
Pi =
Let's take a deeper look:

When rearanged?
I HATE PIE.
IT IS WRITTEN!
Actually (by that logic) it's I SAVOR PIE.
Nope. I did all the research. It is indisputable science.
Science and denial are different. See denial below.
Here's your science, buddy! CHOKE ON THAT[I still love you]!

(I know. Still love you. Even if you are a dirty pie supporter.)
Cause some people want to see the world burn
Or Indiana/Maryland so we can at least both hate on the terrapins. Although, I do have family from Massachusetts which is another area in which you don't want to ask for apple on your pie in most scenarios.
This ladies and gentlemen this is what we call a reach
That's because you REALLY don't want to google search Emma Watson pie
Lol yea I learned this the hard way simply doing a google image search of "pie." The safesearch failed me on that one.
I had it all typed in to Google search and then went - "wait a minute, that won't look good on a work computer."
I had a similar moment earlier today when I went to search "twins gif" for a sarcastic "we're twinsies" reply (for not TKP). I hit Enter and was saved by SafeSearch.
A day late, but I'll just leave this here:
It is never too late, and there is always room for PIE.
This is true. Given my wife's creation above, and others like this, its amazing that I don't weigh 300+ lbs. Of course, I can be too late, with a teenager in the house. But that only deprives me of pie. Most food doesn't have a long shelf life in my refrigerator.
Where Do we stand on Cheesecake?
Cake in the name but looks like a Pie...
I like to think its the best of both worlds.
