OH İTS THE FUCKİNG LOSS COMİC
All I know is, 7 is leaking out.
Dude, so dark… I love it.
- 5 which begins to overflow into the room
- 7
- 4 and 6
- 2 and 3
- 1
This is assuming this is a cross section of something 3d and not something 2d otherwise air packets would get trapped and prevent some of this.
5 and 4 are the only ones getting water other than 1 and 2. 3 has a solid line blocking the flow into it, and even if that wasn’t there, since 4 has a hole/drain in the bottom and 5 can overflow, 3 can’t fill enough to reach the outflow. 5 is the only one that can fill up.
Wrong! The room will begin filling with water from the overflow!
Just pick this up and put it into a tub. Now they’re all full. Take that math!
But which first
If they bothered to drill a drain into #4, I’m sure there is a floor drain.
I’m viewing the edges of the picture as impermeable.
5, but it also depends on the circumstances. What liquid is used, temperature, viscosity, etc. There’s some material science stuff that’s far beyond the intended scope of this question.
Why 5?
1 fills up halfway, which then overflows in 2. The bottom of 2 has a pipe running out of it, which is directed into 5
I depends on the inflow vs outflow of 1 - it might fill up first. But otherwise, yeah, i would say 5 as well.
They are all full already, of air.
Depends on how much you turn on the tap. If you fürn it up completely its 1,else its 5.
Depends on diameter of the pipes leading out too. They look small in the image, but if they’re big enough to handle the max flow out of the faucet, 5 will still fill up first.
I wish these were drawn as closed containers
5
Also, you suck.
Depends on how fast the liquid is flowing in.
Or, actually, can they even “fill”? These are 2D objects.
Is this that “loss” comic? Why is everyone mad?
Yes
The actual joke aside, 4 has a hole in it, so it won’t.
And 3 is blocked
??? 4 and 5 are not connected
Doh, you’re right, not sure what I was thinking.
Cheers, I got you bro.
5 fills from 2, not 4.
Oh yeah, I got so losst
I hate you so much right now. Also I think it’s 5
It’s only 5. It just overflows.
Depends on the flow from the faucet.
If it is filling 1 faster then water can move between then order will be 1->2->5
If it is slow enough then just 5 fills.
Everything else will be dry. Between 2 to 3 is sealed too. Without lids there is a lot of issues.
Because the inlet and outlet of 2 are the same size, 2 will always be filled last, if at all. Once 5 is filled, it will spill out the edges of the container rather than back flowing.
I think there’s a potential for 4 to get wet, even though it can’t fill.
If the faucet pressure and flow is so big that it spills out without filling the bucket, the spill could reach 4. Given that the walls of that bucket are extremely cold, the water could freeze over the drain, making that the first bucket to fill up.
So I would say 4.
Is the faucet flowing?
Technically if it’s faster, then at some point 3 will start to get water. Due to 2 overflowing and filling the space between the 2 cups.
6 probably, maybe would, but not 100% sure.
Which means that really 4 can’t fill up over time.

Yeah nothing will fill up until 5 is full. And then since 4 has a leak it, I think basically ONLY 5 will fill.
deleted by creator
even if there’s no floor, they will all fill eventually. it may cause another noah’s ark situation, but what matters is that all the containers will be filled.
And this is why math is a useless major
4 before 6 because of the hole in 4.
2 and 3 at the same time.

The line is blocked between 2-3, so 3,6,&7 don’t get anything.
deleted by creator
Given enough pressure, bucket 1 will never be filled, and it will overflow to 2 and 3. Depending on the flow, 2 could be the first to fill up.
I like the explanatory drawing you provided.

3/6/7 can’t be filled, the hole between 2>3 is plugged.

It was your comment that made me realise
It was your comment that made me realize, agtwr a day later. Damn
None. The water is not running.
All the candidates are thanked for their time and asked to leave except you, who get invited to join MIB.
Looks like they’re all full of air already
😡
5 will be the only one that will ever fill up unless you really crank up the pressure in which case 7 will also fill but very slowly. 5 and 7 are open containers and there’s a hole in the bottom of 4. But if it’s water coming out of a tap then only 5 will fill .
The connection between 2 and 3 is blocked.
Damn, I didn’t even notice that.
Even if you assume that it is not blocked, it is still 5. The pipe from 2 to 3 is never reached because 4 leaks out the hole in the bottom. Assume that the hole in the bottom is a flaw and 4 still leaks out the top before the pipe to 3 is reached.
1 can also fill up if the flow from the faucet is higher than what can exit through the pipe connecting to 2.
There it is!!! That connector is too narrow, only way it isnt 1 is if the pressure is criminally low.
Unless I completely misunderstand how this works, I think 5 is the only one that will fill up. It then overflows, preventing any of the taller ones from filling. 7 is shallower but won’t start filling until 3 gets fuller than 5, which it never will. This would be true whether the blockage between 2 and 3 is a mistake or not.
You are correct and I agree, but look again.
At the comments.
Then at the image.
Forget all about the water, and the question.
If necessary, reread the title.
Groan.
Yeah I just got it seeing it for the second time in my feed lol
Please help. I have nightmares of being in a room where everyone else is just waiting patiently for me to remember the thing I forgot/figure out what is happening.
Help
Boo lol
This ‘loss’ thing is so annoying.
Yeah I don’t get it. Why does anyone care if the comic was set up that way and if other people copied it. It’s not funny? It’s not anything?
It’s an in-joke.
The comic used to be big in the ~2000s nerd space, mostly by being one of the earlier video game focused webcomics that hit it big. The author had/has a… polarizing personality and the comic itself went from dick jokes and game references to super serious miscarriage storyline at the drop of a hat.
Que endless satire.
I have never understood the meme but that clues me in a bit, thank you.
Fyi, it’s “Cue endless satire.”
Que is Spanish for “what” and is pronounced similar to Kay.
Queue is a bunch of extra letters standing in line after the “Q”
Cue is “it’s time” - imagine an actor backstage being poked with a pool cue to get them going.
Goddammit.
By far the most annoying meme and it’s not even funny.
I think you’re right. Unfortunately, we’ll still have to chalk this up as a loss.
Like losing the game? That was also annoying and the internet stopped doing it eventually.

Wait… Fuck!
this is right. Even if 2 to 3 is open.
The only other candidate is 1. If the faucet has much higher flow than the pipe from 1 to 2 can drain away, then 1 can fill up faster than it drains.
5 is correct but this is a loss leader.
This diagram scratches my brain real good, especially thinking about it getting filled
