Triangles vs. Squares????

uhh, pretty sure this will be a blowout

Less is usually more, and this is especially true for 3 vs. 4. Waltzing vs. Marching. Know what makes the best bridges. Know what is sharper. Know the Egyptians were onto something. Triangles are also more circular. When you cut up your pizza you get triangles. It's even the best way to cut up a square 🥪

triangles got that mystical pizzazz

When you cut up your pizza you get sectors.

Triangle deniers will try sell you anything

hi yes i'd like a cheese sector

a pepperoni wedge for me thank you

I like squares. They are a tent held up by poles and represent stability, celebration and joy, harmonious work. To me they are about home and community

a base rockist would contend this is basically Motorhead vs Metallica

album covers

xxp triangle flags are always better than square flags.

That said, I'd rather live in a square home than a triangle home. hmmmmmmmmmm

The Earth is square.

With the right triangles you can make squares, doesn't work in reverse

Square waves >>> triangle waves

Xp It literally does work in reverse and does so more naturally: entropy vs. activity. Nature vs. Work

square is gonna win cuz that's what the average ilxor is. whommmppp

Xp spose you could cut a square in half

entropy vs. activity. Nature vs. Work

Grilled cheese sandwiches cut straight across or corner-to-corner.

i want the maga-equivalent math/science poster to defend the square.

fuck it, i'll play fast and loose and allow any quadrilateral

also, H.P. coming off a bit of a hypocrite with the previous poll results

How!?

The square equality is kinda suffocating and this is honestly not a fair fight because of it. Triangles vs. Quads is a more even fight with both shapes having flexibility. That said, my favourite quad is a rhombus which is the most trianglular so it's still triangles winning in the end

stop projecting your hatred of your father onto the perfect solidity of the innocent square

I like the new wave album cover aesthetic that incorporates both triangles and squares. I guess triangles are slightly more new wave on balance

obviously the best Mr Man, Mr Strong and Mr Grumpy not in the same league

80s ferry-set soap opera Triangle vs 80s teen sitcom Square Pegs - this one is a tough call

what was that paul daniels thing

Being a cunt?

looks more like a cone tbh

triangles are gay so are by default way cooler

Browsing Beat vibes from that post has made me rethink my dislike of hierarchical oppositions

Bronski Beat ffs sake phone

Squares are more architecturally versatile … idk easier for storage … this is a pretty half-hearted argument tbh

triangle hurts to sit on

square top feels nice and flat

so hard to fix text in a triangle, while so easy for squares
food pyramid text took over 6 presidential administrations to figure out how to get it to fit; meanwhile hundreds of textboxes were published during that same period of time

case closed

pyramids are both

triangles are fiddly to draw with CSS and are really squares in disguise

each has its own strengths, so it is easy to cite single cases where one has the upper hand over the other. therefore, it is reasonable to settle this question based solely upon one's momentary irrational inclination.

triangles 4 life!

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Squares are more elegant. Triangles are frivolous

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

extremely correct

Is anyone tracking the tournament brackets with these

could've sworn there were more squares than this on ilxor dot com
