In my culture, rhombus is the basis of a vagina pictogram. In my culture, rhombus is every schoolboy's favorite shape.

Every square you ever met is a rhombus that gave up its art career and got a boring 9-5.
All shapes will be hunted down to extinction until the one and only remains.

Yeah, it's pretty good. But it's not a hexagon, which is the bestagon...
Wait until they find out it's all actually triangles
Those are parallelograms.
They would be parallelograms if all 4 sides didn't have the same length. But they do, so it's rhombus.
Don't forget the poor trapezoid.
If I ever have my own home, my house will have a rhombus room.
"Don't you mean a rumpus room?"
Bro, that's not even a real shape.
Every 3 ft square box that you shoved a bunch of 3.25 ft long irregularly shaped items into then closed the flaps on is a rhombus.
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'
Fun Fact, many door frames are in fact rhomboid or trapezoidal.
A square is both a rhombus and a trapezoid too
Does it still work on vertical rows and columns, or are they both diagonal now?
Wasn’t she that actress from that 2008 movie Doomsday?
When I played "Psychonauts: In the Rhombus of Ruin" I got reminded again that this thing actually exists.
The word "rhomboidal" exists and you are allowed to use it as much as you like
It's also called diamond or zoomie square. You know, cuz it's like a square that's going so fast the pointy parts start at the tippy top
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.
The point of the modern grade school education is to give any and every student enough of a education in any given topic to specialize in any field afterwards, depending on interest and opportunities, as well as create voting citizens that can understand at least the basics of any given social debate.
Modern education isn't wasted. Some people just waste it afterwards.
And some people who want to destroy it to keep everyone as ignorant as your medieval peasants pretend that they don't understand any of that.
Also smiths would literally just do that on vibes lmao.
OOP needs to eat baklava
Have you ever seen a square? Congrats, it's a type of rhombus.
Yes! Even a rhombus!! https://comb.io/Sks1NZ
This person hasn't done math past elementary.
They're not really mentioned in more advanced math. It's all polygons.
Ok, triangles are often treated as a special case. But for anything else it's a n-sided polygon.
It's not even doing math, just watching science videos etc. is enough to hear the word every now and then. This is surely a person who has no interest in learning overall.
Rhombuses are really commonly used in trigonometry puzzles. You know, "Here's a bunch of lines and a couple of angles, find the angle at X."
"So now what was a love triangle is more of a love rhombus" - Amphibia
Oh love quadrangles are the worst
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
someone's never played q-bert or the sims
A rhombus sounds like a dance, lol
Rhombus escape. More efficient than a porter escape.
I had to look up what that word means in German. It's Raute and that can also be this thing: #
