I think there’s 1 building in Dubai that looks like that?
Take a square. Lean it to the side. Rhombus. Take a diamond, let it fall on one of its sides. Rhombus. The world just keeps a-rhombusin, you just stopped a-noticin’
clearly you didn’t learn, since diamonds are a pretty common shape
Imagine living as a farmer in medieval Europe near a small village and you make MOST of your shit yourself or with help from the local blacksmith. You’d use all kinds of things and ideas that we don’t use any more. You need to be creative to solve your daily problems and find ways to do stuff efficiently. Like imagine you’d need to dig out a bit of earth for an “almost square” and need to calculate the area and volume of earth you’ll have to move.
I’m not sure what I’m trying to say, but I think modern education is wasted on the modern human.
We are not curious enough. Dopamine hit of figuring out a cool thing requires lots of time, meanwhle videogames and movies are guaranteed in short term.
We are not to blame tho, time to spend bored is simply not something we have; every other moment of our life will be either at work, preparing to go work, or driving to work, afterall.
I predict the farmer dug that square on snow instead of dirt. They certainly weren’t farming during mid-winter. Must be boring. I will still be labeling amazon boxes this december.
Come across any rhombus shaped amazon boxes yet?
I will bend some into the shape of one before shipment, just for you <3

Haven’t you guys used a kite before?
The word “rhomboidal” exists and you are allowed to use it as much as you like
They were still around in 1996.
A rhombus, otherwise known as a diamond. Its one of the more popular shapes past star, triangle, circle, and square.
I changed my excel cells to be rhombuses
Does it still work on vertical rows and columns, or are they both diagonal now?
There is an evil invasive plant called Sida rhombifolia that invades local habitats and is obnoxious to pull over here. Guess what shape the leaves are
edit: Acalypha rhomboidea is on the side of justice here though
Every square you ever met is a rhombus that gave up its art career and got a boring 9-5.
OOP needs to eat baklava
isn’t that one of those mask things fascists use?
All shapes will be hunted down to extinction until the one and only remains.

Wait until they find out it’s all actually triangles
The only thing that’s greater than humanity’s obsession with rectangles, is computers’ obsession with triangles.
someone’s never played q-bert or the sims
That’s a plumbob
