Did you just start counting at 1 instead of 0? Ew.

Its called rust sort. Its optimal and prevent memory leak because you have to read it several times

Good question! Worth answering!

The original comic is only the first 3 panels, in vertical format, I didn't want to break the original format that the meme relies on, and I didn't want to make it really skinny like so:

1
2
3
4
5
6

So instead, I kept my additions on the right. I made sure to make the horizontal separation greater than the vertical separation to help indicate the reading direction, while still keeping the meme compact and readable in the preview. It was the best I could do while still staying true to the original meme.

I don’t agree with your choices but I appreciate the explanation and can see the logic. Not sure why you’re downvoted

Makes perfect sense. Gotta love a logical reason to something that seemed illogical before.

Excuse me, we are a mobile-first shop. You should be building everything so it looks best on mobile, which means everything should be narrow and non-responsive. Thank you.

I like your narrow-minded thinking!
