Two Years Ago, The 'Triangle Factory' Meme Dropped Online

A Circle?? In the Triangle Factory?? and I Guess We Doin Circles Now refer to a webcomic about two different people working at a red triangle factory reacting to a blue circle coming down the conveyor belt. The first character picks up the circle and says, "a circle?? in the triangle factory?? how queer!!" The second character just looks at the blue circle and says, "I guess we doin circles now." The original cartoon was posted to Twitter / X by user @MeatMarket__ in August 2024, who captioned it, "which one are you?" In quotes and replies, other X users shared voiceovers and used elements of the comic like an exploitable meme. Other stick figure characters and shapes like green squares entered the meme, expanding the shape factory's lore. Others spread the catchphrase "I guess we doin' circles now" in other posts and used the frame as a reaction image to portray detachment to change.
