I assume "Goodboy Galaxy" is a stupid reference is stupid.

Reading about space exploration on Wikipedia, as one does on a Saturday night.

Learned of the YORP effect (Yarkovsky–O'Keefe–Radzievskii–Paddack). Though coined in 2000 apparently, I see no sign of it being a Keen reference. It might be, though...

Edit... looks like Levellass discovered this before... no harm in us being reminded again however!

In my math lecture, it told me to find the numbers matching the values for a, b, and c, and I put in 3, 1, 4! Therefore, Teaching Textbooks Algebra 2 is a Keen reference.

There's a restaurant in London called "314 Kitchen + Bar".

Which is all the more notable because less than one minute's walk away there is an alley called "Keen's Yard".

Check it out guys, it is as if "Metal" from Keen 6 was a real rock song from the 1970s

Maybe someone can do a cross over with Clouds of Xeen... Clouds of Keen?

The zip file of my Jetpack Xtreme pack is 3.14 KB (completely on accident). Therefore, Jetpack Xtreme and Jetpack itself are both a Keen reference.

Hello everyone! Sorry if this looks like a plug, but I named two of my most recent tracks as an homage to my favorite Keen game (and one of the mods).

I was doing my math lesson the other day, and when I calculated a log on my calculator, the rounded answer was 314.69! Therefore, Teaching Textbooks Algebra 2 is both a meme and a Keen reference.

the rounded answer was 314.69!

Nice

I was in Canada for the weekend, and we were driving on the Q.E.W. When I was talking to my dad, he accidentally called it the Q.E.D! And later when we were on the same road, the time was 3:14 PM! Therefore the Q.E.W. is a Keen reference, and since the Q.E.W. is in Canada, therefore all of Canada must be a Keen reference.

Doing a clinical audit at work. After data collection finished, the number of cases we were left with was, yes you guessed it, 314.

Because, like me, you have nothing better to be doing!

A while back I was out driving and I was stopped at a red light. The guy in front of me was driving a pickup truck with the license plate "314 BOY". Don't know if the driver was a Commander Keen fan or not, but I thought that was an interesting find.
