I'm at a loss as to what this may be.

Is it supposed to be the astronaut with a gun meme?

I can't work it out either I think I'm going to have to go and drink a quartz of vodka and then come back and have a look at it.

It's pretty bad. I can really only tell because it's 4 distinct objects and what the headline is about.

It's like when a 4-year-old draws a dinosaur, but you only know that because he told you that he was drawing a dinosaur.

It’s loss.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I don't know what that means

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 1 points 10 months ago

It's a meme or maybe comic that's referenced like one.

Loss is a 4 panel comic of (1) guy going to a hospital, (2) asking someone at desk for directions, (3) talking to doctor about their loved one, and (4) mourning over said love one lying in bed.

Never heard of that before I'm not quite sure why the relevant to the situation though the astronaut one would have been better

[–] Kiosade@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 months ago

The comic was called “Loss” because it was about the comic character losing his unborn child. It became a meme because it didn’t fit the tone of the comic series (normally about gaming and non serious stuff).

So now when anyone mentions the word “loss” (as OP did in the title of this post), people meme about it in some way. Usually by posting a minimalist version of the comic.

For an in-depth deconstruction of the meme, there's no better source than this guy. The mega compilation: https://imgur.com/gallery/Z4oT8uJ

I see what you did there.

[–] ElPussyKangaroo@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Fine... Your loss. 🙃
