    I don’t get it, could someone please explain?

      A pig without pi is gravity.

      Remove “pi” from pig and you get “g”. And g = 9.81

        Here I was like trying to square pi to see if that was the joke…

      g is the acceleration applied by Earth’s gravitational force (for masses much smaller than Earth’s, that are pretty close, i.e. essentially everything you typically interact with) and is approximately 9.81 m/s^2

    This is the worst meme format.

      Couldn’t disagree harder. One of the funniest lines in the MCU because it’s so unexpected. Everyone does love Marvin Gaye, even super villains.

        Maybe to elaborate: Its the worst format because its used for all kinds of things that are not “out of line”. The original dialogue fit well to it and I liked the scene, but how is it out of line to make a silly numbers joke?

        Now if you made some politically incorrect joke with it, sure. But this, no, terrible execution.

        Maybe if you know the movie but for someone who doesn’t know the original quote, this format this looks weird and makes no sense.

    g is a constant with units, so it can be expressed by different numbers. I think this works better with pie, 3.14, and 2.72. Unless the original quote uses “pig”…

      Ya. Also the joke doesn’t really work unless there is some other meaning for the sentence “pig without 3.14”
