I too am at a loss as to where the meme is
In spring man built a pillar
In summer another
Throughout autumn they held
In winter, one fell

Leaves fell on the shorter one
During the eclipse on the night of 7 moons, a mysterious new pillar is spawned by an unknown force, once again opening a portal to the dark dimension
Evil rises
Sorry for your loss
It’s funny how you can roughly ballpark the education level of a random internet user by how they interpret the word “meme”.
It’s also because the blocks form “Loss.” The infamous Ctrl Alt Del comic.
This is metameta meme. It’s a meme about something that’s not a meme referring to another very specific meme.
Give it another 10 or so years and we’ll be going even deeper
So, just relax, i guess
It is a crooked vein of self referential metacomedy, same as everything these days. Yawn.
Ah fuck.
Welp. I just loss The Game.
Fuck, now you made me have a loss as well. I am like -900 points in The Game.
And we will continue losing till one of us is elected Pope
oh fuck
Second time today, oddly
Why is this coming back… I keep seeing this on here, are people trying the bring this back? Why?
For me, the loss meme always makes me lose The Game.
So the prevalence of Loss is directly correlated to my loss of The Game. And upon seeing Loss, I choose to follow the rules of The Game and let others suffer a loss as well!
I do not apologize for sharing the mental connection between the two. It amuses me.
thanks now all of us are doomed
I guess we could say that John is at a loss
I’ve taken math beyond Calculus and proof based math and I’m still not sure what this is supposed to be other than a demonstration of 2D transformations.
It’s loss. https://amp.knowyourmeme.com/memes/loss
Oh god! How many people are commenting something about loss on this post and I had to be, almost literally, smacked on the forehead with it before I got it.
Thanks!

It’s like rick rolling or whatever, if you know you know
It’s not that it’s funny per se, just one of those things, kinda like “the game” which you’ve all now loss(t)
I just lost the game.
It’s gotten kind of abstract over the years.
I went down the rabbit hole a couple months back. I spent a couple hours looking at old memes, I still don’t get it. Like it’s a not great comic but… I don’t care?
It’s a joke that was never really that funny at the time, and fucking dweebs just won’t stop flogging that dead horse.
It’s not a horse, it’s a baby.
Ohh, that’s dark.

So you could say you’re at a loss as to what the joke is?
I’m at a loss, what could it mean?
Let me translate it for you:
I'm at a loss, what could it mean?
I’m really trying to figure out if you guys don’t get it, or are just pretending like you don’t…
I didn’t get it until I read this comment and thought more closely about it - so I guess put me in the stupid camp lol
It about a comic called “loss” where which has the same character positions as the rectangles.
Yeah, I know that, but I’m not sure how many others get it.
I’ve been on the Internet since dial up was the pinnacle of technology, and I have never seen this meme before.
I still don’t “get it” but I get that it’s a reference to something that I dont know (or care) what it is
God damnit
Guess the joke was loss(t) on him.
Took me a second.
took me about a planck time
I’m irrationally agitated about Scale and Rotation involving a translation and that this is not called out in the meme.
Like it looks like “translation” is just “nothing happens” and this is going to bother me all day please help.
I’m irrationally agitated about Scale and Rotation involving a translation and that this is not called out in the meme.
It’s not entirely inaccurate in the case of rotation, since the composition of a rotation (with angle not a multiple of 2pi) and a translation is also a rotation with a new center.
R e a l l y?
I believe you, but what do I need to read to understand why that is?
There are many ways to prove it but my preferred one is by using complex numbers. In what follows we identify 2D points and vectors with their complex representation so that we won’t have to deal with too many notations.
Let there be three points
z
,z'
andz''
, and assume that:z'
is obtained fromz
by applying a rotation of angleθ
and centeru
;z''
is obtained fromz'
by applying a translation byv
.
That means that we have:
z' - u = (z - u) * exp(i * θ)
z'' = z' + v
In particular, we have:
z'' = u + v + (z - u) * exp(i * θ)
It kinda looks like a rotation is there, since we have a
exp(i * θ)
, so we’d ideally like to have the right-hand side in the above equality be in the formw + (z - w) * exp(i * θ)
.Let’s see if we can achieve that, we’ll look for
w
such that:w + (z - w) * exp(i * θ) = u + v + (z - u) * exp(i * θ)
Which after some simplifications becomes:
w * (1 - exp(i * θ)) = u * (1 - exp(i * θ)) + v
And assuming that
θ
is not a multiple of2 * pi
, we can divide both sides by1 - exp(i * θ)
and we get:w = u + v / (1 - exp(i * θ))
(from here you can easily further simplify to get the explicit 2D coordinates ofw
)So what we’ve shown is that there indeed exists a unique center
w
such thatz''
is obtained fromz
by applying a rotation of angleθ
aroundw
, ie:z'' - w = (z - w) * exp(i * θ)
Translation just means all the coordinates of the points of the rectangle are moved the same increments. So the rectangle is the same length, width , and area, but the location of all of its vertices are different after translation. There’s should be an x y plot to show this.
The rotation one still works. It’s just being rotated around a very specific point to get there.
I think I know what you mean, but is there any point you can rotate around to get that transformation without a translation? Where would that point need to be?
Here’s the video where I actually learned about this phenomenon!
Oh wow that video is actually really good. I was hoping there would be 100 more like it on that channel, but it looks like kind of a one off.
Yeah, I went ahead and subscribed anyways. It’s the first time he’s done a video like that, but it was by far his most successful video. Hopefully there are more to come

Just post it over and over again and it becomes a meme.
