ORIGIN & LORE

Ctrl+Alt+Del, specifically the strip titled 'Loss,' is one of the most infamous memes in internet history. Published in 2008 by Tim Buckley, the webcomic took a sudden, jarring turn from gaming humor to a serious plotline about miscarriage. The dramatic shift was widely criticized and mocked for its perceived clunkiness, leading the community to deconstruct the panel's composition into a minimalist symbolic pattern represented as | || || |_. Today, 'Loss' is a pervasive visual riddle where users hide the pattern in everyday objects, architectural layouts, or other memes, prompting the inevitable question: 'Is this loss?'
