[Box] "HOROSCOPES — Sine = 0: You are a multiple of pi. Today is good day for travel with friends."
[Paper held by 3π] "Sine = 0: You are a multiple of pi. / Sine = 1: You are pi/2 more than a multiple of pi. / Sine = 2: You are a liar."
3π: "I swear, they're spookily accurate!"
Friend: "Ugh. Why do you read that trash?"
