TIL Pizza is a cylinder
It’s a very flat cylinder, but a cylinder nevertheless.
Cylinders prefer to be called thicc circles.
Like a round toast with stuff on it
Let’s face it, pizza is an open face sandwich.
(I like that my first thought reading that was like a comic/meme of intentionally faceplanting (your face) into the middle of a (hot) pizza)
lol, I supposed it should really be “open-faced sandwich”. My mistake! 😁
Rofl, I genuinely didn’t even notice your typo, I was just entertaining myself … or maybe I have unresolved pizza issues :|
If we’re gonna insist to go morphological, then it depends on the edge crust.
If we count that as added thickness, a pizza is a quiche or a pie. I’m pretty sure Chicago Deep Dish would classify as such unambiguously.
If we don’t count the edge as upstanding, a pizza is toast.
I’m not insisting, just joking 😅
Why is a sandwich pizza not a thing already? Like a calzone, but without folding anything.
Curiously, today I had a “kebab roll” (“kebabrulle”) which is a big thing in Sweden. Essentially a kebab pizza with a salad on top, some onion pieces, and dressing, rolled up into a roll, wrapped in tinfoil.
Very good, very heavy meal.

Except the mathematical variable name for radius is r. Also for a cylinder you use the term height, not thickness. Which is called h in math. So by all accounts it should be called Pirrh.
Edit: Also also, with this logic you could’ve just called a pizza “Volume”. Would’ve saved you a lot of time :/
No no, I have heard better excuses than that. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna have a slice of Volume now thank you very much.
I prefer Taurh
Pizza gets better as “a” approaches zero.
But if
a = 0
thenPiZZa = PiZZ * 0 = 0
But it’s approaching zero. It never becomes zero. 😙👌
When is the pizza ready? When has it approached zero?!
We gotta get these pies moving cousin. 10 minutes or less or it’s free, that’s what big Tony says. We never should have let you take over operations, cousin, not with your fancy math degree. I felt bad because you couldn’t find job anywhere else. But what gabagool. What will mother say? You’re going to make her cry.

One molecule-thin crust pizza coming up!
One molecule is thick af, with no extra Cs. Sexy Limits don’t stop just because our feeble reality has size limits.
Sir this is a pizza hut
Thin crust + thin toppings.
Extremely wrong. The ideal A:Z ratio is more like 1:4.
That’s just a bread loaf with cheese on top
Remember that Z is the radius. It’s flatter than you think. I made sure to reference an actual rectangle before making that statement.
That’s a half a loaf of bread with cheese on top
The a is for altura, which is height in Spanish and therefore probably also in Italian
In Italian it’s “altezza” but in this case the better word is “spessore” which means thickness
Pizza’s thicc
Here I thought it was because of Personal Investigator Z.Z. Andersen
This is the absolute ONLY case where it’s acceptable to call a pizza a pie. That being said, well done to the memesmith 😀
But- and hear me out- what if you are a stereotypical Italian chef with a big mustache and a chef’s hat and you send it out to the customer? You gotta say, “at’s-a good pizza pie!”
Good point, but I’m actually not that. I’m starting to suspect that very few people actually are!
At’s-a sad.

Never had deep dish, I take it?
That’s not really pizza OR pie…
It’s actually a pie though. It has a surrounding crust casing as well as a filling, which qualifies it as a pie according to Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is sometimes wrong, though. This is the relevant definition:
A baked food composed of a pastry shell **filled with **fruit, meat, cheese, or other ingredients, and usually covered with a pastry crust
Meaning that a flat pizza wouldn’t count (those are toppings, not fillings) but a calzone technically would.
Read further. The page also says the crust can be on the bottom and the filling on top/inside, as well as crust on top, filling underneath, or both (calzone). So a deep dish pizza is a pie, technically.
The page also says the crust can be on the bottom and the filling on top
This is “literally can mean figuratively” level lunacy. If it doesn’t have FILLINGS rather than TOPPINGS, it’s simply not a pie.
Next you’re gonna tell me that a hotdog is a sandwich (please fucking don’t!)
If it’s not covered and doesn’t have FILLINGS rather than TOPPINGS, it’s simply not a pie.
Where does that put key lime pie and lemon meringue pie? Or pumpkin pie and pecan pie? Are they not pies because they’re not covered?
I don’t really know what you’re referring to at this point.
I’m saying:
- A regular flat pizza is not a pie. It does not have a casing, and the “filling” is a topping, as you say.
- A (Chicago-style) deep-dish pizza is a pie (more-so than a pizza in my opinion but whatever) because it has a bottom crust with filling on top (a pie according to Wikipedia). That’s not lunacy. It’s right there on Wikipedia, with even a link to Chicago-style deep-dish pizza.
- A calzone is a pie because it has crust both on top and on the bottom (surrounding the filling), as well as filling inside.
This is not “lunacy”. It’s just reading a definition and interpreting things to fit the definition. 🤷♂️ If you think that’s lunacy I’d hate to tell you about Pluto. A pie with crust on the bottom is very common. Meat pies, and pastry pies, among many others. Crust on bottom is common, crust on top is common. Crust all around is common… Not lunacy.
I’m going to refrain from talking about hotdogs, because I’ve yet to look up the definition of a sandwich, but I’d rather not at this point lol.
It’s kinda like a delicious pizza cake.
That I’ll accept lol
Not OP, but I never have, and not sure if I can get any in my area, but I would like to try it some day.
Get to Chicago, and don’t shy away from spinach. That shit’s delicious. I’m a fan of Giordano’s, but there’s a lot of valid argument about who does it best.
Wrong side of the ocean. I’m not gonna take an eight hour flight to try out a pizza that’s more of a casserole.
Oh yeah, definitely not worth it. 😂
A deep dish pizza and a calzone are both technically pies as far as I can tell. They have a surrounding casing of crust. A flat pizza would not be a pie.

Agreed. This guy pies.
I’m pieing all over you mfs. 😎🍕
Reminds me of this Melissa Cherry classic from The Onion Movie 😂

pi of Pie (with ZZ toppings) is meme squared
It would be 2PiZA, since ZZ is Z squared
EDIT: my bad, I was thinking of circumference
Wat? It is supposed to be squared though…
That would be the surface area of the crust, not the volume
How does that work out? It doesn’t take into account how large the crust is in relation to the rest of the pizza.
Sorry, the surface area of the “vertical” side of the crust, not including the top or bottom surfaces.
Still not right, I think. That would be 2πZ, not 2πZa, right?
No, you need to include the height of the cylinder (a). Imagine a deep dish pizza (big a) versus a thin crust (small a) - the sides of the deep dish pizza have more area. Your formula returns the circumference of the pizza.
If you’re interested in dimensional analysis (and why wouldn’t you be?) the formula you proposed doesn’t have enough length units. It would return a value of length (like inches, or cm) not area (like square inches or square cm).
Oh gosh, my mistake. Had just woken up.
2 Pizza? That’s even better.
It’s a 2-for-1 deal! Like Little Caesar’s! Pizza pizza.
The parenthesis are pointless. Exponents go first, but multiplication doesn’t care about order, and there is only multiplication going on.
They could be used to separate two letter symbol (Pi) from one letter symbol (Z, Z, a)
The parentheses are for clarification and thus not pointless. Know your audience. 🙂👍
Clarification of what? The joke doesn’t need them and neither does the math.
That Z² is equal to ZZ.
If we didn’t use parentheses in primary school, because “the math doesn’t need it”, then it would be quite unnecessarily hard on the students’ learning. Maybe it’s a joke someone made for a class?
No, it is syntactically unnecessary.
I understand your point, and agree when it comes to programming with things like scope, typing, semicolons, etc, etc… Many concepts are easier to learn when enforced through syntax.
Though if someone gets cofused on the transitive nature of multiplication with a single simple equation … They aren’t learning math.
How old are you? Do you remember how stupid we were when we were like, 12? How learning new shit really required over clarification ad nauseam seen through our eyes now? Teachers are really patient people.
Anyway, this is just a joke post. Get over it. 🙂 Laugh at the funny. Instead of sucking it out of us. ❤️ The parentheses help make it look like the math is more advanced than it really is. It’s fine. Shhh. No no. Shhh. It’s supposed to be funny.
Isn’t the Z axis vertical?
Not in bistromath.
Indeed, a common mistake for newcomers to the field.
It’s typically vertical, but you can name your variables however you want.
The Z axis is usually used for depth, so it’s going to be perpendicular to whatever your frame of reference (i.e. projection plane) is.
If it’s upright in space, like a computer screen, the Z axis will be horizontal. If it’s a sheet of paper on a desk, then yes, I suppose it could be argued to be vertical instead.
in lots of 3D software Z is horizontal
All the 3D printer software, Z is vertical. But I only used a couple so I am not an expert.

🤔
Yup.
Horizontal going into the screen right? The depth axis, if you will.
not consistently. I find there are basically two schools of thought in 3d graphics:
-
the screen is a graph representing a 3d space: the x axis is horizontal, the y axis is vertical. depth, going ‘into’ the screen, then becomes the z axis. mathematicians and programmers tend to like this.
-
the screen is a camera viewing a 3d space from within itself: the coordinates to position yourself along a line is one dimensional: x. to position yourself on a plane as in a 2d game, two dimensional: x, y. to position yourself within a volume, three dimensional: x, y, z. humans are kind of inherently planar spatial navigators - it’s easy to think about our position in terms of “where on the ground” we are, then adjust for height. 3d artists and level designers tend to like this.
Ah I see. Thanks. I’m used to the first line of thought, as that’s what I’ve been using when doing 3D programming.
-
I’ve definitely seen Z as the forward/backward axis before
No? That would be the y axis.
that’s cool, but did you know that you can get more pizza if you order two mediums instead of a single large?
that’s insane 😮 did you know that you can get more pizza if you order 2 large pizzas instead of 2 mediums?
woaaah you’ve just changed my life. does the same go for small > medium? I wonder if two smalls are also bigger than two larges
Did you know two mediums cost more than a single large?
I’d say that depends entirely on whether their diameter is larger than half of that of the large pizza.
Whoa whoa whoa tho… Did you know that if you got three large pizzas it’s more than 4 mediums?
Again, I’d say that depends entirely on their respective diameter.
Haha I love this

This is genius.
the z should be lower case
Yeah Z is the set of integers. Or a random variable. Or something. I dunno, it’s been a while.
right, capital letters are usually some predefined set…
