The 'You're Pointless' meme is a classic play on words featuring geometric shapes, typically a triangle or square taunting a circle for its lack of vertices. While the exact origin of the comic is rooted in early internet math humor and webcomics, it gained widespread popularity as a relatable reaction image for literal or existential arguments. The humor stems from the double meaning of 'pointless'—referring both to the circle's smooth, edge-free perimeter and a lack of purpose or relevance. It is frequently used in academic settings, engineering circles, or simply as a witty retort in online debates to dismiss an argument entirely.
